LETTER TO ALUMNI

OF THE LAW SCHOOL

�Northwestern University Information is published by Northwestern University weekly during the
academic year at Lunt Administration Building, Evanston, Illinois. Entered as second-class mail-matter
at the post office at Evanston , Illinois, under Act of Congress of August 24, 1912; acceptance for mailing
at special rate of postage provided in Section 1103, Act of October 3, 1917, authorized on June 14, 1918.

�A News Letter to Alumni of the Law School
To

THE LAW ScHOOL ALUMNI:

Life about the Law School, as everywhere, moves so rapidly that there
is no time to tell about it. Since we last sent you a bulletin more has
happened than can be crowded into one brief report.
On the whole the progress of the School continues to be satisfactory.
The demand for our graduates continues to be strong, and their geographical
distribution grows wider with each year. Measured by their splendid success
in widely diversified fields of practice, we have every reason to feel that the
changes made from year to year in our teaching program are meeting the
demands of the profession for well-trained young lawyers.
FACULTY ACTIVITIES
We are happy to report that Dean Wigmore has fully recovered from
his illness of last year and is back in his office with his usual clocklike regularity. Mrs. Wigmore's health, too, has greatly improved. They still make
their home at the Lake Shore Club.
Professor Kocourek, after his retirement in the summer of 1940, was
continued in service as Lecturer in Jurisprudence. Even the close call he had
in getting out of Germany in August, 1939, has not dampened his zeal for
going places. He is now spending the winter months in Cuba.
Professor Millar continues his high batting average for scholarly production. Those endless round trips to the library for the one book he needs
continue to excite the admiration of students and faculty alike. To the great
delight of everyone he has put his approval on the quality of food served in
Abbott Hall. Millar on Good Food is an authority accepted by all gourmets.
Professor Albertsworth is in an even happier mood than usual. It may
be due to the long hangover from California sunshine, the high expectations
from a growing herd on an ever expanding ranch, or the joy that comes from
calling balls and strikes on the "nine old men" in Washington. Your guess
is as good as mine !
Professor Havighurst, who came here as a youngster, is now one of the
middle-aged of the faculty: He is giving the School a good name in the fields
of Contracts and Insurance to ever widening circles. He is also the Law
School's representative on the University Senate Committee, charged with the
responsibility of working out a better University faculty organization.

3

�Professor Baker, of the same vintage as Havighurst, has long been identified with Criminal Law Administration. As managing editor of the Journal
of Criminal Law and Criminology, and as a director of the Chicago Crime
Commission, he has rendered great service to the community. During the
semester he is enjoying a long-deferred leave, but is not idle. Among other
activities he has accepted appointment by Chief Justice Hughes as a member
of the Supreme Court's advisory committee charged with rewriting the rules
of criminal procedure for the federal courts.
Professor McCormick, after nine years of splendid teaching service,
during which time he prepared the most-used casebook and the leading onevolume text on Damages and a widely used casebook on Evidence, yielded to
the temptation offered by the deanship of the Texas University Law School.
During the last several years he has been one of the most sought-after teachers
in America. It is only after suffering a loss of such a man that a faculty
realizes how dependent a school is upon the student-teacher relation. Another
good man may be obtained, ht.it the one who is lost can never be replaced.
Professor Carey, assisted by Mr. Daniel Schuyler, '38, has just completed
a one-volume text on Future Interests, which will no doubt in years to come
take the place of the well-known volume on the same subject by the lamented
Albert Kales. The volume is now in press. Professor Carey's next venture
is to present in seminar the current real estate problems involved in real
estate financing, city planning, slum clearance and housing, building codes,
zoning, etc.
Professor Spaeth and Professor Wall ace were taken from us by Yale in
1938. Wallace is still teaching at Yale. Spaeth was induced by Mr. Nelson
Rockefeller to take over heavy duties in South America. When Mr. Rockefeller was appointed by the State Department to head the Commission on
Cultural Relations with South America, Spaeth became one of Rockefeller's
right hand men and is now in Washington. He can be reached at Room 227,
State Department. Here again the School suffered heavily when it lost these
men who were just hitting their stride as teachers.
Professor Cook has recovered his strength after a severe illness last
summer. He probably worked too hard in revising three of his well-known
casebooks. At present he is getting his essays on Conflict of Laws in readiness
for publication.
Professor Thorne has recently completed his book entitled A Discourse
on Statutes, an edition of the earliest treatise on statutory interpretation in
England (sixteenth century)-from Lord Ellesmere's papers in the Huntington Library. The book constitutes one of the most significant contributions
4

�to legal history in recent years. Professor Thorne is already worrying over
the crowded condition of Elbert H. Gary Library. It will not be long before
additional space for books will be imperative.

Professor Nathanson is now completing his fifth year at Northwestern.
His teaching and scholarship in Administrative Law and Labor Law are receiving wide recognition. Professor Wirtz came to the School from Iowa State
University two years ago, as successor to Professor Wallace. His parents'
home is in DeKalb, Illinois, and he is an alumnus of Beloit and Harvard.
Professor McGowan came in the same year as a successor to Spaeth from
practice in New York City with the firm of Debevoise, Stevenson, Plimpton
and Page. He hails from Paris, Illinois, and is an alumnus of Dartmouth
and Columbia. Professor M acChesney came to the School in 1940 as a
successor to Professor Kocourek. He is the son of General Na than William
MacChesney, '02, and is an alumnus of Yale and Michigan. He served with
Dean Landis when the latter was chairman of the Securities and Exchange
Commission; taught at Harvard in the School of Government; later was an
associate professor of law at the University of California, and still later was
in charge of wages and hours litigation in the Department of Justice. He is
now on call for navy service.
Havighurst, Nathanson, Wirtz, McGowan , and MacChesney are attempting the most difficult thing in academic life-developing joint teaching
enterprises. Their seminars for third year students mark new ventures in legal
education.
Professor Walter Schaefer, of the Chicago bar, came in 1940 as successor
to Professor McCormick. He is an alumnus of the University of Chicago
and has been practicing at the Chicago bar since his graduation from Law
School in 1928. He was associated with Tolman, Sexton and Chandler until
1934, when he became counsel for the Agricultural Adjustment Administration. Later he was with the Chicago office of the R.F.C. and still later was
Assistant Corporation Counsel of the city of Chicago. He was associated with
the committees which prepared the Illinois Civil Practice Act and the new
Federal Rules.
Professor Leesman, of the legal department of the Chicago Title and
Trust Company, continues to give the very practical course in Conveyancing.
The dynamic quality of Professor Love finds great appreciation in the classroom problems of Civil Clinic. The painstaking care of Miss MacN amara
continues to make bearable the exacting routine of the field work of Civil
Clinic; and the popularity of Mr. Goldstein's Trial Technique seems never to
wane.

5

�Mr. Inbau has about completed setting up the Chicago Police Crime
Detection Laboratory, which is the best of its kind in the country. His leave
expires this year, and we hope to have him back on the job at the School.
The Illinois Law lecturers render the School an ever increasing service.
By reducing the number of subjects and providing a better hour, more students
are enabled to take advantage of the lectures. The following constitute the
series and lecturers for the current year:
Stuart Bradley, Admiralty.
Daniel D. Carmell, Workmen's Compensation.
Arthur Goldblatt, Marriage, Divorce, and Legitimacy.
Stanley Gordon, Landlord and Tenant.
Albert E. Hallett, Jr., Appellate Practice.
James G. Holbrook, Probate Practice.
Howard C. Knotts, Illinois Public Utility Law.
H. J. Livingston, Banking.
Keith Masters, Radio Law.
Thomas J. Matousek, Land Title Registration.
Frank E. Quindry, Aeronautical Law.
Elmer A. Smith, Practice Before the Interstate Comme.rce Commission.
George M. Weichelt, Corporate Suretyship and Credit Insurance.
The office and secretarial staff continue their excellent work. Miss
Crawley, the oldest in service, pinch hits at any position. Mrs. Watkins cares
for the business troubles of the Illinois Law Review, the Journal of Criminal
Law and Criminology, and the Journal of Air Law and Commerce-. Miss
Morgan still does Evidence along with a score of other activities for Mr.
Wigmore, as well as the secretarial work of Mr. Cook and Mr. Baker. Miss
Pente, Miss Brenneman, and Mrs. Hamstra (Dora Neal) struggle along
with the other members of the faculty, while Miss Deppe, as secretary of the
School, and Miss Thompson, as assistant secretary, have charge of the general
office and the dean's office. Miss Scarborough, cataloguer of the library, is
ably assisted by Mr. Lapham, assistant librarian, (now on call for military
service) and Miss Pendleton as secretary to the librarian. Mr. Chetlain
continues his splendid service in the book store and as first aid to every
"drooping" student.
SCHOLARSHIPS AND STUDENT AID
Last year through the good offices of Mr. Oscar Stern, '10, Mrs. Fannie
M. Ware established the Ware Scholarship in memory of her son, Lieutenant
Manierre Barlow Ware, who was killed in action on October 12, 1918, in the
Argonne sector battle. The income from her gift of $10,000 pays the full
tuition of a student.
6

�Mr. Elmer A. Smith, General Attorney of the Illinois Central Railroad,
continues his tuition scholarship of $400, which from its inception has been
awarded to the editor-in-chief of the Illinois Law Review if he has needed
the award, and he usually has.
The book fund established by friends of the late Mahlon Ogden West,
'25, to purchase books to be used each year by some needy freshman has proven
an idea worthy of imitation on a larger scale.
Also the income from the fund established by Mr. Frank Lowden, '87,
for two prizes of approximately $100 each, gives additional zest to the moot
court competition and to Dean Wigmore's group in Profession of the Bar.
STUDENTS
The attendance for 1940-41 showed a 5 per cent increase as against an
11 per cent decrease in law students throughout the country. In all probability
there will be a considerable dropping off in September, 1941. The draft will
take a number of young men who would otherwise enter law school, and the
attractive jobs now becoming available will draw off others. There will still
be many left, however, who desire to get their legal training as quickly as
possible. The best turn alumni can do the School is to send it good students.
If you do not have time personally to interview prospective students send us
their names and addresses.
The year has been extremely severe on the nerves of students. The strains
incident to the draft, the excitement of a national election, and all the uncertainties growing out of the war have made heavy inroads on their time and
their interest in their studies. Nevertheless, they have demonstrated unusual
courage and stamina. The Junior Bar Association has functioned to great
advantage in dealing with the internal problems of the School, and the Law
Review editors have put out a creditable volume of interesting notes and
comments in the Illinois Law Review and the other journals.
ABBOTT HALL
Abbott Hall is serving the School in all the ways we anticipated. It has
made the Chicago Campus into a University community, and incidentally,
has relieved the pressure on Levy Mayer Hall. Some one hundred law students
have already taken quarters there. With each year we expect the number to
increase. If you have not seen Abbott Hall, surprise after surprise is in store
for you. Why not get up a class dinner and invite the faculty as paying guests?
You can reserve the alumni lounge and dining room any week-day evening
and get an excellent meal served for $1.00. The '35, '36, and '37 classes have
already had very delightful meetings. They plan to continue them from year

7

�to year. If you desire to build up strong and worthwhile alumni support for
the School these annual class meetings provide the surest way of doing so.
Also please remember that you are invited any day of the school week, except
Saturday, to be the guest of the faculty for lunch at its table in the faculty
dining room of Abbott Hall. Simply telephone in advance that we may expect
you.
ALUMNI DINNER
The Law Alumni Association, we understand, is planning its annual
dinner at Abbott Hall some time in the spring. Accommodations can probably
be made for four or five hundred. We would suggest, however, that you
make your reservations early. Mr. Stanford Clinton, 134 North LaSalle
Street, Dearborn 0525, is the secretary of the Association.
THE FUTURE

The next two or three years will in all likelihood be extremely hard ones
for the Law School. It needs all the support that you can give it.
In this connection let us strike a note of optimism despite the crush of
events that lay us low almost every day. With every year we grow stronger
in our belief that the legal profession has more to contribute toward the
stabilization of an orderly and · happy society than any of its other groups.
We believe in the great future of the Chicago area and the boundless opportunities which it and the great middle country offer to well-trained lawyers.
We feel that the next twenty years will see the greatest and healthiest development in all legitimate activities the country has yet known. We have faith
that the young men who have gone out from Northwestern Law School and
those who are coming after them will be equal to the demands of their day.

�LEVY MA YER HALL

��THE

SCHOOL OF LAW was founded in 1859 by
Thomas Hoyne, with Henry Booth as its
first dean. In 1873, as the Union College of Law,
it came under the joint control of Northwestern

University and the old University of Chicago.
When the latter institution ceased to exist, the
School came under the control of Northwestern
University, and in 1891 became Northwestern
University School of Law.
The School is located in Chicago in two new
buildings overlooking Lake Michigan at Lake
Shore Drive and Chicago Avenue, within a few
moments' walk of Chicago's Loop district. Levy
Mayer Hall is the gift of Mrs. Levy Mayer in
memory of her husband, an eminent member of
the Chicago bar. The Elbert H. Gary Library
Building, which houses the Elbert H. Gary
Library, is the gift of the late Elbert H. Gary,
of the Class of 1867. A beautiful cloistered garden, enclosed by an arched wall connecting the
wings of the two buildings, is the gift of Mrs.
Hortense Mayer Hirsch, daughter of Mrs. Mayer
and the late Levy Mayer.

�Scope of Program

T

H E C HARACTER of modern law schools is decisively marked by the interests
they serve and by the programs wh ich reflect those interests.
The development of a law school program to serve the interests of the
great area and population of the Middle West and to provide the training
required for its young lawyers imposes heavy obligations upon a university.
No other great territory focuses so many interests upon a single community;
no other community has so many problems for a law school.

Chicago is the great agricultural market and trade center of the nation;
the great live-stock and dairying market; the great food-processing center for
meats, breads, and fruits; the great industrial and manufacturing center; the
great wholesale and retail market of finished goods. Attendant upon these
is the country's most extensive transportation network of rail, inland waterway, highway, and airway facilities. All these in turn require enormous
credit and banking resources, extensive sites, plants, and office buildings for
their officials, tradesmen, and clerical staffs. Sustained by such activities is
a massive population which requires all the institutions of communication,
subsistence, convenience, pleasure, art, and learning of modern society; out
of such activities arise all the legal problems incident to industry and trade
known to the law.
Of equal import to a law school are the institutions of government requisite
to such a territory and community. The pr oblems of local government, such as
police, health, sanitation, public education, amusements, traffic, transportation, and taxation, which beset the hundreds of governmental units in the
vast Chicago metropolitan area; the problems incident to the numerous
governmental agencies of the State of Illinois and the other great states to
which the business interests of the Chicago region are subj ect; the problems
created by the far-flung agencies and activities of the national government
throughout this great middle country-all problems within the scope of the
professional service of a lawyer-impose responsibilities and give opportunities which a law school must meet on behalf of the profession.
Of even greater importance to a people and profession devoted to the
principles of independence and freedom in all their relations are the men,
women, and children whose interests as individuals lie at the base of society,
and whose protection is frequently overlooked in the more dramatic struggles
of business and government.
An institution for training men capable of doing the work of the law
in such an area must itself have organization. It must have officers and
trustees whose personalities and experience are representative of the interests
it serves; a faculty of such man-power and learning as to provide instruction
and training and promote scholarship in so vast a field of law and government.
It must have buildings and quarters which facilitate the work of the students
who must cover such a field in the short period of three or four years; a
library which makes available the law and legal literature of every country
whose law may be brought into question by the cosmopolitan population and
aggressive men of business who operate within such vast territory of trade
II

�and commerce. It should have a student body small enough to obviate the
deadening influence of large formal classes, and of such character and scholastic attainments as to generate the intellectual drive required for individual
studies. Its curriculum must cover the problems the profession must meet;
it must be rigid enough to insure the understanding of basic principles, yet
flexible enough to allow the widest choice on behalf of the student who desirea
mastery over some small segment of so large a field of professional service.
The School is committed to such policies. It has a large faculty composed
of able teachers, distinguished scholars, and experienced lawyers. Its student
body is selected through operation of the highest standards of admission, and
is the smallest of any of the national schools. It has an extensive and flexible
curriculum of formal, small group, and individual studies. Through the generous support of the Illinois and Chicago bars it is enabled to offer many studies
in local law and special subjects which normally cannot be reflected in a curriculum. Its legal clinics for practical study and experience were the first to be
established. The three legal periodicals and the foundations and institutes
fostered by the School and its friends promote the widest research and publication on the part of its undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and
members of the profession generally. Its buildings, library, and other facilities
are designed to make the School's program adequate to its responsibilities for
providing thorough professional training.

F

Admission

students may enter in September at the beginning of the school
year. Upperclassmen may enter at the beginning of the fall, winter, or
summer terms.
IRST-YEAR

An applicant for admission to the School must file an application for
admission, and must furnish proof of having obtained a bachelor's degree in
arts or science from an approved college, or of having satisfactorily completed three years' study in an approved college. A complete transcript of his
college record, together with evidence of any degree he may have received,
must be filed with his application, or as soon thereafter as it can be obtained.
If he has done work in another law school or any other school in addition to
his college work, a complete transcript of such work must also be filed with
his application.
An application should be supported by two or more letters from professors
who know the applicant well, stating what they know of his abilities, habits,
and character generally; also by a photograph. A blank form for making
application will be supplied on request.
If the applicant resides in or near Chicago, he may be requested to come to
the School for a conference.
An application must be accompanied by the matriculation fee unless the
applicant has previously been matriculated in any department of the University.
This fee will be returned only if the applicant is not admitted.
In the discretion of the Dean, applicants not exceeding ten in number for
any one year who possess the general educational qualifications for admission
12

�to the Illinois bar may be admitted as special students not candidates for a
·degree.
The admission of students from other law schools and the granting of advanced standing for credits obtained in any such school rests within the
discretion of the Dean of the School.
No applicant will be admitted who has been denied re-admission to another
law school.
Auditors who have already been admitted to the bar and who are not
candidates for a degree may be admitted to certain courses in such numbers
as will not interfere with the work of the students registered for such courses.
The total number of students admitted each year is limited to four hundred,
exclusive of graduate students.

Summer Term. Any applican t in good standing at a member school of
the Association of American Law Schools will be admitted for the summer
term. His application for admission must be accompanied by a certificate of
good standing.

Pre-Legal Study
Among the many values to be derived from college study, maturity is of
peculiar importance to the study of law. Such maturity comes from rigorous
intellectual discipline derived from the mastery of any study undertaken by a
student, rather than from the mere content of the subject matter.
While students may enter the School of Law with either three or four years
of college preparation, it is the opinion of the faculty that only relatively
mature students should enter before securing an academic degree. But it is
also the opinion of the faculty that a student who is qualified to enter law
school at the end of his third year in college will become a much stronger
lawyer by spending four years rather than three in the law school. The
greater facilities of the law school fot doing independent work during the
later years of his course develop the student's power far more than does
the additional year in college.
Students differ in their tastes, and college courses differ in the stimulation
and discipline afforded the student. The School of Law, therefore, does not
prescribe particular college courses for admission nor does it recommend
specific courses. In this it follows the judgment of the Association of American
Law Schools. The preparation of each student for law study is left to the
individual and the college.

D

Degrees

will be conferred by the Trustees of the University upon students who are recommended therefor by the Faculty of the School of
Law. Before a student will be recommended for a degree he must have satisfied
the faculty as to his character and must have complied with the requirements
hereinafter set forth for the degree for which he is a candidate:

awarded cum laude or magna cum laude.

Degree of Bachelor of Laws (Six-year program)

I. The degree of Bachelor of Laws will be conferred upon students
admitted on the basis of three years ( ninety semester-hours) of high-grade
credit from an approved college (not including any credit for law study),
who satisfy the requirements of three years of residence and eighty-four
semester-hours of credit as provided for candidates for the degree of Juris
Doctor who hold a bachelor's degree in arts or science.
II. By a vote of the faculty upon petition a special student may become a
candidate for the degree of Bachelor of Laws upon the following conditions:
(a) At the time of beginning his studies in this School the student must
have been at least twenty-two years of age.
(b) The student must have completed at least one year of work in this
School before filing his petition for admission as a candidate for a degree.
( c) The student must have attained in the studies pursued in this School
an average standing of 75.
( d) The student must satisfy the faculty, apart from formal proof of his
general education, that he has had such exceptional education, training, or
experience as in its judgment qualifies him to be a candidate for the degree.
When so admitted, the candidate shall be entitled to receive the degree of
Bachelor of Laws upon the completion of three academic years of residence
and eighty-four semester-hours of law work. But the degree shall not be
granted unless the candidate has attained an average standing of 75 in respect
of the whole amount of such work.
Degree of Master of Laws. The degree of Master of Laws will be conferred only upon students who have obtained a first degree in law from this
or some other university or college having equal requirements in that regard.
In unusual cases this requirement may be waived by vote of the faculty.
A candidate for the degree of Master of Laws, in addition to having
obtained a first degree in law, as above mentioned, will be required to meet
the following conditions:
(a) The completion of one year of residence in this School, during which
time credit must be obtained in not less than fifteen semester-hours in courses
not previously counted toward the first degree in law.

The passing of an examination covering his general legal attainments.

Degree of Doctor of Juridical Science. The degree of Doctor of Juri-

dical Science-Scientiae Juridicae Doctor (S.J.D.)-may be conferred on
recommendation of the Faculty of the School of Law upon candidates who
have obtained the degree of Juris Doctor from this or some other university or
college having equal requirements in that regard, or have obtained the degree
of Bachelor of Laws from another university or college whose requirements
for that degree are equal to those prescribed by this School for the degree of
Juris Doctor.
A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science, in addition to
having obtained the degree of Juris Doctor, or its equivalent, as above mentioned, will be required to meet the following conditions:
(a) The completion of one year of residence at this School. The time

run far beyond the period of residence required.
(b) The completion of a study to be approved by the faculty or its proper
committee. This study shall be one involving original research and must be
eompleted in such manner, both as to subject matter and literary form, as
to be, in the opinion of the faculty, a significant and scholarly contribution to
legal science. The mechanical form of the manuscript shall be subject to the
approval of the faculty.
(c) The completion of such other work, if any, as may be directed by the
Dean in the particular case.
( d) The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the faculty.

given the opportunity of instructing students along the line of their research.
They are. given the rank of research associates and are accorded many of
the privileges of members of the faculty. The opportunities afforded by the
School and the community for graduate study are in all practical respects
unlimited.

Combined Degrees
Degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science.

I. The degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science will be conferred upon

University Register for particulars), upon the further satisfactory completion
of twenty-seven semester-hours of the first-year courses in the School of Law,
or upon the completion of such equivalent courses in the School of Law as
may be approved by the Faculties of the School of Law and the College of
Liberal Arts.
15

�II. A student presenting three years of college credit from another approved college of arts or science may, upon the satisfactory completion of the
first year's work in the School of Law, receive from this faculty a certificate
requesting t!te faculty of his original college to recognize his work in this
School of Law as the equivalent of a fourth year in college and to recommend
him for t!te degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science in that college or university.
Degree of Bachelor of Science in Law. The degr-.:e of Bachelor of
Science in Law will be conferred upon students who are admitted to the
School of Law on the basis of three years of college credit, and who are not

student's registration has terminated.

Examinations
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. They are for the
purpose of affording a basis for the determination of the student's relative
mastery of the subject upon which he is examined. But they provide only
one source, though an important one, for such purpose. In addition, the
written work done in connection with a course, the preparation of assignments
for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion, the contacts generally with
the professor in charge incident to the development of a course, are all of great
value in rating the standing of a student, and in most courses are reflected in
the final grade.
Examinations in individual or small group studies may or may not be given,
dependent upon the character of the subject and the nature of the instruction.
No re-examination will be given in any course for the purpose of raising
a grade obtained therein on a prior examination unless the student again
regularly takes the course, or in the case of individual studies, does further
work as may be required.

Grades
Grades are given in accordance with the following scale:

85 to I 00-A (Excellent) }

75 to
65 to
55 to

84-B (Good)
p (P . )
74-C (Fair)
assmg
64-D (Poor)
F (Failure)
0 to 54-F (Failure)
A student who at the end of a year has failed to maintain an average grade
of 65 to that date shall be ineligible for further registration in the School.
A student who fails to maintain an average of 68 over his entire course
shall be ineligible for a degree.
16

�In Illinois Law Lectures, individual studies, and courses in which no formal
examination is given, only grades of P or F will be recorded. Neither such
grades nor those received at other schools will be considered in determining
the weighted average grade.

Promotion
Each applicant must have obtained, for promotion:
To the Second Year .............. . . 24 semester-hours
To the Third Year ... . . ... . ...... 48 semester-hours
To the Fourth Year
... 72 semester-hours

Curriculum
Formal Class Studies. The curriculum is designed primarily for formal

and intensive classroom work based upon the study and analysis of cases,
supplemented by library reading and investigation. After the first year it
permits a highly flexible program for the individual student.

Individual Studies. Individual and small group studies are available after
the first year, upon such conditions and for such credit as may be approved by
the professor in charge and the Dean.
Required Subjects. Passing grades in the following subjects are required
for graduation for all students receiving the degree of Juris Doctor or
Bachelor of Laws:
(I) All first-year courses.
( 2) Legal Ethics.
(3) Legal Clinic, Cwil Branch (not required for members of the Legal
Publications Board).
Inasmuch as three-year students must carry extremely heavy work to satisfy
degree requirements, they are advised to attend an additional summer session
in order to take advantage of the opportunities afforded by the legal publications and the clinics, both of which are of the utmost importance.
Limitation of Work. The curriculum for the first year represents what is
thought to be the maximum amount of work which can be done by a good
student under favorable conditions. Students who are under any serious
handicaps such as physical disability, the necessity of earning part of their
expenses, commuting for long distances, or are otherwise handicapped should
reduce their programs accordingly.
No first-year student may register in any course other than those herein
indicated for first-year students except by permission of the Dean. No student
after the first year may register for more than fifteen or less than ten hours
per week except by permission of the Dean. Any student may be further limited
in his registration if in the opinion of the Dean he cannot undertake the work
desired with prospects of success.
In the fourth year, not less than ten semester-hours of credit must be obtained in each semester.

�Seminars
The purpose of seminars is to encourage individual and small group studies
designed to develop independent investigation and writing. Such studies
must necessarily be left almost entirely to the individual instructor's direction
and supervision. In the fields of Public Law and Corporations the problems
are so closely related that instructors may collaborate with great success. It
is for this reason that a number of Public Law and Corporate studies are
under the supervision of several instructors.
Each group will be limited to a maximum of ten students, unless for good
reason and by agreement of the instructor in charge and the dean the limit
is increased. No student may register for more than two seminars concurrently.
The seminars are conducted for a semester, but will be repeated unless
otherwise stated. The hours of credit should normally not exceed two hours
for a semester. In the case of closely related seminars, the instructors will
agree on a general policy for determining the value to be given for work
done by students. A copy of a student's written work must be filed in the
General Office.
Registration blanks for seminar work may be obtained from the General
Office.

FINANCIAL REGULATIONS

Bills. The Division of Student Finance, first floor, Abbott Hall, issues

and makes all adjustments on student bills. These bills are mailed to
the address indicated on the billing card which is filled out by the student
at the time of registration. Each bill is due ten days from its date and is
paid at the Cashier's Office, Ward Memorial Building. Each student is
responsible for receiving his bill. In the event that a tuition bill is not
received within three days from the date of registration, the student should
make application immediately at the Division of Student Finance. The due
dates of bills cannot be extended because students fail to receive their bills.

Installments. A student who wishes to pay his tuition in installments may
make application at the Division of Student Finance, Room 15 6, Ward Memorial Building, at least one day before his bill is due. An Installment Fee
of $1.00 is charged for payment of the bill in two installments; an Installment Fee of $2.00 is charged for payment of the bill in more than two
installments.
Financial Obligations.No student who is delinquent in the payment of
tuition or other fees, or against whom the University holds record of indebtedness, will be given a diploma of graduation, a certificate of scholastic
standing, or a transcript of record, until such indebtedness has been fully
paid. A student who owes tuition or other fees at the close of a semester
will not be permitted to take his final examinations or to receive credit for
that semester. Registration in the University is provisional and subject to
cancellation by the Director of Student Finance at any time until bills are
paid.
Withdrawals and Refunds. Official withdrawal blanks are available at
the office of the School of Law. Students who withdraw before the end of
33

�the first two weeks are held for no charge other than the Matriculation Fee.
Students who withdraw after the first two weeks and before the end of the
fourth week are held for all fees plus one-quarter of the tuition charges.
Students who withdraw after the end of the fourth week and before the
end of the eighth week are held for all fees plus one-half of the tuition
charges. Students who withdraw after the middle of the semester are held
for tuition and all fees. In the case of exclusion for non-payment
of tuition, the same charges are made in accordance with the above dates.
In all cases, the date on which the official withdrawal notice is received at
the Student Finance Office, or the date of formal exclusion, is used in figuring
any adjustments on tuition.

Student Bank. The University maintains a student bank at the Cashier's
Office, Ward Memorial Building, as an accommodation to students. Pass
books are used, as in a commercial bank, and students may write only counter
checks against their deposits, payable to themselves. There is no charge for
this service, and no interest is paid on deposits.
General Expenses. The expenses of a student for the academic year, including tuition, books, board and room, and incidentals, approximate $1,000.

The Elbert H. Gary Library
The Elbert H. Gary Library of some 115,000 volumes housed in the Elbert
H. Gary Library Building represents chiefly the gifts of the late Elbert H.
Gary, LL.B., 1867, LL.D., 1922. It ranks among the five largest law school
libraries in the United States and includes substantially all the reported
decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and territories,
Great Britain, Canada, and Australia, together with their statutes and session
laws, and all subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases,
textbooks, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary to form a complete working
collection of Anglo-American law. In addition there is a very representative
collection of volumes upon comparative law, which includes the codes, decisions, and journals of all modern European countries, adequate resources
for research in Roman and medireval law, and a good working collection of
volumes upon Japanese and Chinese law. The Theodore S. Chapman and
Robert 0. Farrell collections of Mexican law supplement a useful group of
some five thousand volumes on Latin-American law. A large collection of
treatises and periodicals upon international law is supplemented by many
treaties and diplomatic documents, and the whole permits useful work to be
carried on in the field of public international law. The Library maintains
an especially complete collection of volumes and documents upon the criminal law and its administration.

Pictures
The School's collection of pictures, now numbering some 2,500 pieces, copiously illustrates the history, personnel, and customs of the legal profession,
not only in Great Britain and the United States, but all over the world. It
represents acquisitions accumulated during the past thirty years, partly by
purchase, partly by gift from alumni and other friends. Personal search has
34

�been made in nearly every country of Europe for portraits and scenes to illustrate other systems of law; may of these are unique and irreplaceable.
The collection includes some forty oil paintings, and about 1,500 etchings
and engravings. A special series is a set of twenty large platinum photographs
of portraits of eminent British judges in the National Gallery of Portraits,
col_ored by a London artist to show the costumes. The larger portraits are
framed for display on the walls of lecture rooms, Library reading-room,
and corridors.

The James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation
In 1926 Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond established the James Nelson and Anna
Louise Raymond Foundation by a gift of $200,000, the income from which,
subject to certain annuities, provides a legal clinic for the poor. It was organized under the superintendence of a joint committee of the School of Law,
United Charities, and the Chicago Bar Association. Since its establishment
the income from the Foundation has been generously supplemented by further
gifts from Mrs. Raymond. The work of the clinic is under the direction of
attorneys of the School of Law, who are generously aided by the staff of the
Legal Aid Bureau of the United Charities. The work of the School and that
of the Legal Aid Bureau are highly coordinated. Indigent claimants and
defendants in every type of case are represented. The student comes in intimate
contact with the routine and problems of office practice and litigation generally.
The claims successfully prosecuted aggregate thousands of dollars annually,
and the legitimate defenses afforded indigent persons are equally valuable.
The Foundation and clinics were the first to be set up on behalf of a law school.
For details of the clinic work required, see the Curriculum.
In connection with the work of the Legal Clinics, Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond established the James Nelson Raymond Fellowship, by gifts totaling
$40,000, the income from the Fund to be awarded annually for graduate fellowships. See Fellowships, Scholarships, Prizes.

The Julius Rosenthal Foundation
The Julius Rosenthal Foundation was established in 1919 in memory of
Julius Rosenthal, by his son Lessing Rosenthal, his daughter, Mrs. George
Pick, and Charles H. Hamill, Max Hart, Harry Hart, Mark Cresap, Frank M.
Peters, Leo F. Wormser, F. Howard Eldridge, Willard L. King, Magnus
Myres, Mrs. Joseph Schaffner, Mrs. Otto L. Schmidt, all of Chicago, and the
Honorable Julian W. Mack, of New York. Julius Rosenthal (1828-1905) was
an eminent and beloved member of the Chicago bar and Librarian of the
Chicago Law Institute for nearly forty years. He was the most learned
lawyer of his time in Chicago, did more than any other man to establish the
best standards of legal schobrship in this region, and by numuous gifts of
books indicated his interest in the welfare of this School.
The present capital fund of the Foundation is $69,200, the income from
which is applicable generally for the cultivation of legal literature, and specifically by means of the publication of meritorious essays, monographs, and

�books of a scientific or practical nature concerning the law, which otherwise
might not readily find a publisher; by the aid or encouragement of research in
the field of legal literature, and of the preparation for publication in whole
or in part of the results of such research; by the delivery and publication of

of law of this School 1902-19 I 5, and one of the most eminent patent lawyers
of his day. The capital fund of $37,000 was provided by Mrs. Charles C.
Linthicum, Harvey S. Firestone, his long-time client, and Otto R. Barnett and
Melvin M. Hawley, his associates at the Chicago bar. The income from this
fund is applicable to the general purpose of cultivating research, study, and

topics of the law involving the development of trade, industry, and commerce;
and specifically by means of the delivery of lectures or other form of instruction; the publication of meritorious essays, monographs, or books; the aid of

Mimeograph Service

The Law School Book Store is located at the basement entrance to Lincoln
Hall. It is operated by Mr. J. F. Chetlain. All bills for purchases made
from the Book Store are due Mr. Chetlain personally.
In many courses it is necessary to supply mimeographed teaching materials.
Mr. Chetlain performs this service. At the beginning of each semester a
charge is made against each student for the mimeographed materials required
in his courses. Upon payment of his bill to the Book Store he is entitled to
receive the materials. A charge is made only for the supplies and labor
required in their preparation, plus a small charge to the Book Store for
handling. No charge is made for the time of the instructor and his secretarial assistants spent in research, editing, and cutting the stencils.

Abbott Hall
All men law students except married students and those whose homes are
within easy commuting distance of the School are expected to live in Abbott
Hall. It is designed to provide convenient and attractive living quarters and
a center for the Chicago Campus social and cultural life. It is also designed
to provide an atmosphere in which may be developed all those qualities of
personality which are so essential to a lawyer but which for most part fall
outside the sphere of formal training. Students who desire to live elsewhers
should present their requests with their reasons in writing to the Dean be/ ore
the beginning of registration.
The building, eighteen stories high, overlooks Lake Michigan at Lake Shore
Drive and Superior Street. The first two floors and the basement are given
over to common rooms for social and recreational purposes, the upper sixteen
to private accommodations. It is constructed of Indiana limestone and conforms in architectural style to the classroom buildings on the campus. It
is within walking distance of the Loop, and a parking lot for the use of
occupants is adjacent.
The first floor contains general waiting rooms and offices and a series of
shops. On the second floor are several commodious and attractive lounges;
a library; two large dining rooms which offer cafeteria and table service.
In addition there is a lounge and common living room on each of the upper
floors. The basement constitutes a well-equipped athletic department.
Three floors ( 13, 14, 15) are reserved for the students of the School of
Law. Both single and double study bedrooms, some of them with private
baths, are available. The furnishings are of modern design and in light
tones. Double rooms have double equipment: two desks of modern design,
fitted with typewriter pulls and ample drawer space; two dressers; and two
beds with inner-spring mattresses. Single rooms contain units of the same
type. All rooms are provided with lounge chairs, rugs, draperies, study
lamps, and bookshelves. Each room has a commodious closet which is large
enough to be used as a dressing room. (Trunks may be stored in the baggage
room in the basement.) Bed linens, blankets, and towels are included in
the furnishings.

of the dormitory on the Chicago
Campus, to be ready for occupancy in September, 1940, is
shown on page 3. The building will overlook Lake Michigan
on Lake Shore Drive between Superior and Huron streets, one
block south of the School of Law. A view of the Law School Garden,
Levy Mayer Hall, Elbert H. Gary Library, and other buildings of
the University as they will appear from the dormitory is shown on
page 4.
The building will be eighteen and one-half stories in height, and
in architectural design and materials will conform with the other
buildings on the campus. It will provide housing for some seven
hundred students, and in addition, with its lounges, library, faculty
club, committee rooms, recreational facilities, dining and banquet
rooms, cafeteria service, and quarters for fraternities, will accommodate most of the social interests of all the students, faculty, and
alumni of the Schools of Law and Commerce, the Medical and
Dental Schools, and the University College.
Three or four floors accommodating 160 to 200 students will be
set aside for the School of Law. Most of the rooms will be double,
renting at $180 to $190 a student for the academic year. Larger
double rooms will be available at $200 to $210 and single rooms at
$250 to $27 5. Meals in the cafeteria will cost on the average one
dollar a day. The total cost for room and meals should range from
$400 to $47 5 per year.
Before the building is completed a booklet will be published
giving the details of its facilities, a schedule of costs, and other data.

T

HE FACTORS that enter into a lawyer's training are largely
imponderables, and it is these factors that student housing
accentuates so greatly. The advantages that come from
students living and working together are so many and so significant
that they can scarcely be catalogued, and never adequately
appraised.
The student who must commute from six to twenty miles loses
from one to three hours per day. The wear and tear on his nerves
are severe. He is deprived of the use of the library and other school
facilities for evening study. His effectiveness as a student is reduced
from thirty to forty per cent. Student housing converts these losses
into gains-association with fellow students, participation in the
activities about the School, and the stimulation and discipline that
students give one another. The impetus is instantly felt in classroom, in conference, in law review, in personal contact, and in
student, faculty, and alumni morale. In cumulative effect upon
institutional growth these advantages are incalculable.

Habits of Study
Habits of study are so important to student success that they
cannot be overstressed. A good man with poor study habits is
severely handicapped; so much so in fact that he may easily be
outstripped by a mediocre man whose habits of study are superior.
I suppose study habits vary like other habits, but I have observed
that students whose lives become the center of things about the
School are never in trouble with their studies or otherwise. How
they find the time for the things they do is amazing. The truth is
they become extremely sensitive to their environment, not only to
[7]

�formal lectures, but to what other students say-the classroom and
corridor debates. In other words, they become expert listeners and
in addition expert crammers. Incidentally, that is what as lawyers
they will be all their lives. What lawyer has . not heard a better
theory of his own case fall from some chance remark of the judge
or some unguarded argument of his opponent? Who has not had to
prepare his case for trial while his partner was selecting the jury or
arguing a preliminary motion, or during the brief adjournment for
lunch? And at the end of some hectic day in the courthouse or
conference, who has not spent the night in his office reforming his
whole line of attack or defense?
To learn to study with intensity, to cover ground rapidly, to get
the most out of the minute and to extend the process through long
hours, to turn from one thing to another with renewed drive, to
"practice law by ear" when the occasion arises, is basic equipment
for the lawyer. It is not obtained in isolation. It comes as the
result of pressure-pressure from others in the same environment.
This, I think, is one of the great advantages students gain from
living and working together. They learn more from each other
than from any other source, and acquire habits which sustain them
throughout their professional lives.

Personality
The development of personality is indeed an imponderable.
When analyzed, it sums up the whole going concern we call a human
being. I am sure none of us could or would undertake to write the
formula for the personality we think best suited for the lawyer.
Quite the contrary, we should desire a wide variation of personalities-and that is what we get though we do not know how.
But we do know that personality is the source of power for the
lawyer, and that a good personality is essential to his functioning
in most of the work that lawyers do. Moreover, we know that the
personalities we rate the highest are not developed in a vacuum.
Experiences with other human beings, intimate and extended over a
broad range of interests, opposition, critical appraisals, competition,
struggles, friendships, sympathy, errors and aggravations that
compel action, opportunities to clash and continue clashing; all
these and more are the sustenance from which personalities draw
their strength.
[8]

�In high school, students insist on being alike; individuality is
scorned. In college the timid continue to imitate their fellows; the
bold go to the other extreme. It is from the latter group that most
law students come. And when they reach law school they are a
colorful lot. But the study of law turns out to be different from what
they thought; their colors fade. They must submit themselves to
disciplines before unknown. It is beneath their dignity to imitate
again. Blind acceptance they refuse. But the bold assertion of
opinion makes little headway against the stubborn formulas of the
law. Their individualism shrivels unless more substantial nourishment is found than the easy conquests of college life. Their selfsufficiency must have a sounder basis; and this they discover can
only be developed by personality beating against personality until
each wears itself down into durable, storm-proof texture. Nor is
color out of place here, but only color that won't wash out. Law
school can do much for the lawyer's personality, but not more
through its lecture halls and libraries than through its lounges and
dining rooms. The development of personality does not end with
law-school days, but in the surging group life of men from 21 to 26
it has indeed a rich environment in which to grow.
Toughness of Fibre

In law school maturity comes rapidly. The materials which
students study are histories of the struggles where the mighty as
well as the weak have fallen, and victories have not infrequently
been won by blind chance, prejudice, ignorance, perversity. These
struggles offer limitless opportunities to fight again for a better
quality of justice. The student may choose his ground. There is
always ground on the other side. The fibre that sustains judgment is
toughened through the process of battling. Where as many as two are
gathered together in the study of law there is always a battle, and
where there is battle there are others anxious to join the colors of
those who battle. One small skirmish between two law students may
develop into action on many fronts. Maturity is little more than the
toughening of the fibre of the individual so that he can stand alone
under stress, whether before his fellows who hover about in the
locker room or before judge and jury in the court room. Without
sturdy adversaries with time and opportunity to challenge every
move and to meet argument with counter argument, the judgments
[9]

�students make as a result of their studies go without the ordeals
that test their strength.

Courage and Tolerance
Power should not be entrusted to those who lack courage or who
are intolerant of others with whom they deal. No other group of
men in a democratic society are given such powers and privileges
as are lawyers; no other group of men are so little restricted by
controls outside themselves. It is easy for most men to develop a
sense of fearlessness under the protections the legal profession
affords, but fearlessness is not all of courage. It is equally the part of
courage to restrain and withhold where passion or prejudice or
ignorance or unfair advantage or cruelty commands condemnation
by word or act. Who can take the hated word, the cruel thrust, and
not give it? Or if perchance the flesh is weak, can promptly make
amends? That's the test. Its solvent power never fails to mark
the lawyer.
And what is tolerance? It is but another name for couragecourage in restraint-courage enough to hear the other side and
resist the urge of passion, the desire to crush by force or falsehood
what should be met by reason. Where there is courage there must be
tolerance also, and a tolerant spirit cannot dwell in the atmosphere
of fear. Courage and tolerance are not the gifts of birth. Men learn to
face dangers and restrain their passions through long and painful
trials and errors. But to the lawyer they are as important as to
know the rules of law. And to be known as courageous and tolerant
is the highest honor a lawyer can achieve.
If a young man while still a student can gain his own confidence
and control he will be saved most of the troubles that make a
lawyer's life unhappy. There is no better training in that direction
than the hour-upon-hour association of fellow students engaged in
professional study. In a company of law students one is courageous
and tolerant or his life is not worth living. "It's the natural thing
to do."

Vision, Freedom, Expression
The differences in lawyers are not so much in mental capacity, in
diligence, or in fine traits of character. They are more subtle. The
nearest I can get to them is to say that they are disclosed by the
[ro]

�range of vision, the feeling of freedom and the power of expression.
Perhaps all of these are but phases of the same thing. One can hardly
have vision without the feeling of expansiveness that comes from
rising above the restrictions of one's environment. And to be sure,
both the vividness and the beauty of expression are but reflections
of the clarity of vision itself.
Whatever this power may be, it is most useful when found in the
lawyer. For the lawyer's part in a democratic country calls for
vision, the feeling of freedom, and the capacity for accurate expression to a greater degree than is required of any other citizen.
Consider some of the implications of the lawyer's work.
Take the country lawyer-the lawyer practicing in a town of
from one thousand to fifty thousand population - the general
practitioner who continues to be active at every detail of his work as
long as his health will permit, and sometimes longer. He has been
the most influential citizen in American life. Why? Because his
vision of country America has probably been the clearest vision in
his community, and he has lived the freedom that gave wings to
his expression, whether in the courthouse or elsewhere. The same
can be said of the city lawyer, buffeted as he is by such a multitude
of conflicting interests, only to the extent, with rare exceptions,
that the country lawyer has removed to the city and continued to
exercise his old prerogatives in the new environment.
In recent years the country lawyer has lost something of his
position. And why? Because the country is no longer just country.
The automobile, radio, and periodical have eliminated the things
that made the country so very different from the city. The country
lawyer lost his supremacy because his vision became blurred along
with that of other people. He no longer feels that certainty of judgment about everything in general that once made his opinion so
vital to the community. Even if he does pretend his former assurance, the hollowness of his pretensions becomes readily apparent.
So many new things have come into the fields where he once reigned
supreme that he is no longer free to speak, and no one knows that
fact better than he.
But the country lawyer is coming back, except that he will not
be a country lawyer any longer. He will be the community lawyer
and will be found, and is needed as badly, in the city as in the
country town. But he won't come back until he regains his vision
[II]

�of the world about him so that he can speak with something of the
assurance of his predecessor. He may be, he can be, he should be,
the most powerful stabilizing force in his community, wherever it
may be.
How can he regain his vision? He must come to understand the
problems of his clients and fellow citizens. What are the problems
of the country merchant? the local bank? the community cooperatives? the wheat grower? the cattle raiser? the milk producer?
tobacco and cotton growers? the landowner who has oil and gas
beneath his soil? the local labor union? the improvement district?
the municipality in which he lives? the local industries that carry
on the activities of his community? the foreign client whose enterprise links together the interests of the entire,country? the state and
national governmental agencies which operate in his community?
Suffice it to say that with few exceptions they are not what they
were even twenty years ago. The law we practice today but reflects
the problems of current life. Where a little while ago the local court
cared for nearly all our business, we have today a rapidly expanding
federal system and numberless state and federal administrative
agencies dealing with a host of problems entirely foreign to the
experience of most middle-aged lawyers. The lawyer gains nothing
by denying or ignoring these new developments, or blaming this
class of citizens or that because they have come about. He has no
option. He must know current life, and the better his understanding
the more valuable he will be to his community.
But to know the current life of today the country lawyer must
know much of what the city lawyer knows, much that the member
of the corporation's legal staff knows, and everything the government lawyer knows. They all deal with much the same problems and
with each other. They must utilize much the same processes. Their
business varies primarily in the amounts of money involved and in
the frequency of the recurrence of the same detail. One thing is sure,
the small town is no haven for the fellow who is stealing away from
big-time practice. The community may call for a different type of
personality but not for a difference in training and ability.
The things a lawyer must know are tremendous both in area and
in complexity. They involve the theories of law and economics as
well as the practices of government and business. If the opportunities of lawyers prepared to deal with current problems were
[12]

�never greater, it is equally true that law schools were never so hard
pressed to bring within the scope of their curricula the subject
matters which lawyers need to study. They have great assistance
from members of the bar who generously give lectures on numerous
special subjects which can barely be noticed in the general courses.
The lectures of economists, historians, government officials, and
publicists in general have been valuable indeed in supplementing
the general courses found in law-school programs. Junior bar associations have developed stimulating courses of lectures and contests
for their members. But the truth is there is not enough time for it
all, and to seek the remedy by depriving the student of two years
of his college training seems an unjustified as well as unprofitable
invasion of the time of life given over to maturing his body and
spirit. It may be that the adding of a fourth year to the overcrowded
law-school program based upon a minimum of three years in college
will prove a necessity.
But until that time the greatest relief from the uncomfortable
pressure of the present program is found in housing facilities where
students live together and make their professional preparation a full
year holiday. It is a holiday in the best sense of the term in that it
involves nothing boresome. To the outsider it may seem monotonousl
but in fact the only regrets a student has are the lack of time and
the limitations of physical stamina. Studying law is much like a
disease. There is little the victim can do about it except to let it run
its course. And it constantly reinfects the victim so that if it takes
at all he never recovers. It differs from other diseases in that the
law student only knows he's ailing when it doesn't take.
The ground that law students must cover in a period of three years
is extensive. It transgresses the bounds of the broadest curriculum.
But the overflow problems of current life are not disconnected from
law. They are part and parcel of the law student's daily grist. And
just as students fight out their problems of strictly legal theory and
practice, so they battle over the theories and practices of business
and government. These problems give the same keen edge to law
that law gives to them. They will continue to have the same urgency
as strict law so long as the lawyer retains his ascendancy in the
community life of the country. They need to be debated in an
atmosphere of freedom, where views _c an be expressed without the
alarm of clients, where alumnus and distinguished visitor can speak
[ 13

l

�without the restraint of formal lecture. In such an atmosphere the
study of law assumes proportions in keeping with the scope of the
lawyer's functions in society, and gives to the leaders of tomorrow
the advantages which only a university can provide.

�THE LAW SCHOOL GARDEN

�THE

SCHOOL OF LAW was founded in 1859 by
Thomas Hoyne, with Henry Booth as its

first dean. In 18 73, as the Union College of Law,
it came under the joint control of Northwestern
University and the old University of Chicago.
When the latter institution ceased to exist, the
School came under the control of Northwestern
University, and in 1891 became Northwestern
University School of Law.
The School is located in Chicago in two new
buildings overlooking Lake Michigan at Lake
Shore Drive and Chicago Avenue, within a few
moments' walk of Chicago's Loop district. Levy
Mayer Hall is the gift of Mrs. Levy Mayer in
memory of her husband, an eminent member of
the Chicago bar. The Elbert H. Gary Library
Building, which houses the Elbert H. Gary
Library, is the gift of the late Elbert H. Gary,
of the Class of 1867. A beautiful cloistered garden, enclosed by an arched wall connecting the
wings of the two buildings, is the gift of Mrs.
Hortense Mayer Hirsch, daughter of Mrs. Mayer
and the late Levy Mayer.

�T

Scope of Program
of modern law schools is decisively marked by the interests
they serve and by the programs which reflect those interests.
HE CHARACTER

The development of a law school program to serve the interests of the
great area and population of the Middle West and to provide the training
required for its young lawyers imposes heavy obligations upon a university.
No other great territory focuses so many interests upon a single community;
no other community has so many problems for a law school.
Chicago is the great agricultural market and trade center of the nation;
the great live-stock and dairying market; the great food-processing center for
meats, breads, and fruits; the great industrial and manufacturing center; the
great wholesale and retail market of finished goods. Attendant upon these
is the country's most extensive transportation network of rail, inland waterway, highway, and airway facilities. All these in turn require enormous
credit and banking resources, extensive sites, plants, and office buildings for
their officials, tradesmen, and clerical staffs. Sustained by such activities is
a massive population which requires all the institutions of communication,
subsistence, convenience, pleasure, art, and learning of modern society; out
of such activities arise all the legal problems incident to industry and trade
known to the law.
Of equal import to a law school are the institutions of government requisite
to such a territory and community. The problems of local government, such as
police, health, sanitation, public education, amusements, traffic, transportation, and taxation, which beset the hundreds of governmental units in the
vast Chicago metropolitan area; the problems incident to the numerous
governmental agencies of the State of Illinois and the other great states to
which the business interests of the Chicago region are subject; the problems
created by the far-flung agencies and activities of the national government
throughout this great middle country-all problems within the scope of the
professional service of a lawyer-impose responsibilities and give opportunities which a law school must meet on behalf of the profession.
Of even greater importance to a people and profession devoted to the
principles of independence and freedom in all their relations are the men,
wom·en, and children whose interests as individuals lie at the base of society,
and whose protection is frequently overlooked in the more dramatic struggles
of business and government.
An institution for training men capable of doing the work of the law
in such an area must itself have organization. It must have officers and
trustees whose personalities and experience are representative of the interests
it serves; a faculty of such man-power and learning as to provide instruction
and training and promote scholarship in so vast a field of law and government.
It must have buildings and quarters which facilitate the work of the students
who must cover such a field in the short period of three or four years1 a
library which makes available the law and legal literature of every country
whose law may be brought into question by the cosmopolitan population and
aggressive men of business who operate within such vast territory of trade
10

�and commerce. It should have a student body small enough to obviate the
deadening influence of large formal classes, and of such character and scholastic attainments as to generate the intellectual drive required for individual
studies. Its curriculum must cover the problems the profession must meet;
it must be rigid enough to insure the understanding of basic principles, yet
flexible enough to allow the widest choice on behalf of the student who desires
mastery over some small segment of so large a field of professional service.
The School is committed to such policies. It has a large faculty composed
of able teachers, distinguished scholars, and experienced lawyers. Its student
body is selected through operation of the highest standards of admission, and
is the smallest of any of the national schools. It has an extensive and flexible
curriculum of formal, small group, and individual studies. Through the generous support of the Illinois and Chicago bars it is enabled to offer many studies
in local law and special subjects which normally cannot be reflected in a curriculum. Its legal clinics for practical study and experience were the first to be
established. The three legal periodicals and the foundations and institutes
fostered by the School and its friends promote the widest research and publication on the part of its undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and
members of the profession generally. Its buildings, library, and other facilities
are designed to make the School's program adequate to its responsibilities for
providing thorough professional training.

F

Admission

IRST-YEAR students may enter in September at the beginning of the school
year. Upperclassmen may enter at the beginning of the fall, winter, or
summer terms.

An applicant for admission to the School must file an application for
admission, and must furnish proof of having obtained a bachelor's degree in
arts or science from an approved college, or of having satisfactorily completed three years' study in an approved college. A complete transcript of his
college record, together with evidence of any degree he may have received,
must be filed with his application, or as soon thereafter as it can be obtained.
If he has done work in another law school or any other school in addition to
his college work, a complete transcript of such work must also be filed with
his application.
An application should be supported by two or more letters from professors
who know the applicant well, stating what they know of his abilities, habits,
and character generally; also by a photograph. A blank form for making
application will be supplied on request.

If the applicant resides in or near Chicago, he may be requested to come to ·
the School for a conference.
An application must be accompanied by the matriculation fee unless the
applicant has previously been matriculated in any department of the University.
This fee will be returned only if the applicant is not admitted.

In the discretion of the Dean, applicants not exceeding ten in number for
any one year who possess the general educational qualifications for admission
II

�to the Illinois bar may be admitted as special students not candidates for a
degree.
The admission of students from other law schools and the granting of advanced standing for credits obtained in any such school rests within the
discretion of the Dean of the School.
No applicant will be admitted who has been denied re-admission to another
law school.
Auditors who have already been admitted to the bar and who are not
candidates for a degree may be admitted to certain courses in such numbers
as will not interfere with the work of the students registered for such courses.
The total number of students admitted each year is limited to four hundred,
exclusive of graduate students.

Summer Term. Any applicant in good standing at a member school of
the Association of American Law Schools will be admitted for the summer
term. His application for admission must be accompanied by a certificate of
good standing.

Pre-Legal Study

Among the many values to be derived from college study, maturity is of
peculiar importance to the study of la.w. Such maturity comes from rigorous
intellectual discipline derived from the mastery of any study undertaken by a
student, rather than from the mere content of the subject matter.
While students may enter the School of Law with either three or four years
of college preparation, it is the opinion of the faculty that only relatively
mature students should enter before securing an academic degree. But it is
also the opinion of the faculty that a student who is qualified to enter law
school at the end of his third year in college will become a much stronger
lawyer by spending four years rather than three in the law school. The
greater facilities of the law school for doing independent work during the
later years of his course develop the student's power far more than does
the additional year in college.
Students differ in their tastes, and college courses differ in the stimulation
and discipline afforded the student. The School of Law, therefore, does not
prescribe particular college courses for admission nor does it recommend
specific courses. In this it follows the judgment of the Association of American
Law Schools. The preparation of each student for law study is left to the
individual and the college.

D

Degrees

will be conferred by the Trustees of the University upon students who are recommended therefor by the Faculty of the School of
Law. Before a student will be recommended for a degree he must have satisfied
the faculty as to his character and must have complied with the requirements
hereinafter set forth for the degree for which he is a candidate:
EGREES

Degree of Juris Doctor

(Seven-year program)

I.

The degree of Juris Doctor will be conferred upon students admitted
on the basis of a bachelor's degree in arts or science from an approved
12

�college (not including any credit for law study) upon the satisfactory completion of eighty-four semester-hours of credit in the School of Law, during
a residence period of three academic years.
II. The degree of Juris Doctor will be conferred upon students admitted
on the basis of three years ( ninety semester-hours) of high-grade credits
from an approved college (not including any credit for law study) upon the
satisfactory completion of one hundred four semester-hours of credit in the
School of, Law during a residence period of four academic years. One such
year of residence may be satisfied by three summer sessions.
Where in the opinion of the faculty the candidate's record of scholarship
is one of distinction or special distinction, the degree of Juris Doctor may be
awarded cum laude or magna cum laude.
Degree of Bachelor of Laws (Six-year program)
I. The degree of Bachelor of Laws will be conferred upon students
admitted on the basis of three years ( ninety semester-hours) of high-grade
credit from an approved college (not including any credit for law study),
who satisfy the requirements of three years of residence and eighty-four
semester-hours of credit as provided for candidates for the degree of Juris
Doctor who hold a bachelor's degree in arts or science.
II. By a vote of the faculty upon petition a special student may become a
candidate for the degree of Bachelor of Laws upon the following conditions :
(a) At the time of beginning his studies in this School the student must
have been at least twenty-two years of age.
(b) The student must have completed at least one year of work in this
School before filing his petition for admission as a candidate for a degree.
( c) The student must have attained in the studies pursued in this School
an average standing of 75.
( d) The student must satisfy the faculty, apart from formal proof of his
general education, that he has had such exceptional education, training, or
experience as in its judgment qualifies him to be a candidate for the degree.
When so admitted, the candidate shall be entitled to receive the degree of
Bachelor of Laws upon the completion of three academic years of residence
and eighty-four semester-hours of law work. But the degree shall not be
granted unless the candidate has attained an average standing of 7 5 in respect
of th e whole amount of such work.

Degree of Master of Laws. The degree of Master of Laws will be conf erred only upon students who have obtained a first degree in law from this
or some other university or college having equal requirements in that regard.
In unusual cases this requirement may be waived by vote of the faculty.
A candidate for the degree of Master of Laws, in addition to having
obtained a first degree in law, as above mentioned, will be required to meet
the following conditions:
(a) The completion of one year of residence in this School, during which
time credit must be obtained in not less than fifteen semester-hours in courses
not previously counted toward the first degree in law.
(b) The completion of a thorough study of some approved legal topic and
the presentation of a paper embodying its results, of such character as to be
13

�suitable for publication in the Illinois Law Review. The thesis shall conform
to the style sheet of the Review.
(c)

The passing of an examination covering his general legal attainments.

Degree of Doctor of Juridical Science. The degree of Doctor of Juridical Science-Scientiae Juridicae Doctor (S.J.D.)-may be conferred on
recommendation of the Faculty of the School of Law upon candidates who
have obtained the degree of Juris Doctor from this or some other university or
college having equal requirements in that regard, or have obtained the degree
of Bachelor of Laws from another university or college whose requirements
for that degree are equal to those prescribed by this School for the degree of
Juris Doctor.
A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science, in addition to
having obtained the degree of Juris Doctor, or its equivalent, as above mentioned, will be required to meet the following conditions:
(a) The completion of one year of residence at this School. The time
required for the completion of a candidate's work, however, will normally
run far beyond the period of residence required.
(b) The completion of a study to be approved by the faculty or its proper
committee. This study shall be one involving original research and must be
completed in such manner, both as to subject matter and literary form, as
to be, in the opinion of the faculty, a significant and scholarly contribution to
legal science. The mechanical form of the manuscript shall be subject to the
approval of the faculty.
(c) The completion of such other work, if any, as may be directed by the
Dean in the particular case.
( d) The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the faculty.
It is the policy of the faculty to restrict this degree to candidates who have
had experience either in practicing or teaching law, and who have developed
some scholarly objective. Candidates are afforded every facility for both
library and field research, and at some time during their residence they are
given the opportunity of instructing students along the line of their research.
They am given the rank of research associates and are accorded many of
the privileges of members of the faculty. The opportunities afforded by the
School and the community for graduate study are in all practical respects
unlimited.

Combined Degrees
Degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science.
I. The degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science will be conferred upon

students who have secured credit in the College of Liberal Arts of this
University for ninety semester-hours, in accordance with its requirements (see
University Register for particulars), upon the further satisfactory completion
of twenty-seven semester-hours of the first-year courses in the School of Law,
or upon the completion of such equivalent courses in the School of Law as
may be approved by the faculties of the School of Law and the College of
Liberal Arts.
14

�II. A student presenting three years of college credit from another approved college of arts or science may, upon the satisfactory completion of the
.first year's work in the School of Law, receive from this faculty a certificate
requesting the faculty of his original college to recognize his work in this
School of Law as the equivalent of a fourth year in college and to recommend
him for the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science in that college or university.
Degree of Bachelor of Science in Law. The degree of Bachelor of
Science in Law will be conferred upon students who are admitted to the
School of Law on the basis of three years of college credit, and who are not
candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science, upon the satisfactory completion of the first year's work in the School of Law.

Application for Degree

Application for a degree, accompanied by the graduation fee, must be made
in writing and filed with the Secretary during the period the candidate is
registered in the School. An application for a degree will not be accepted
after a student's registration has terminated.

Examinations

Regular examinatiims are given in all formal courses. They are for the
purpose of affording a basis for the determination of the student's relative
mastery of the subject upon which he is examined. But they provide only
one source, though an important one, for such purpose. In addition, the
written work done in connection with a course, the preparation of assignments
for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion, the contacts generally with
the professor in charge incident to the development of a course, are all of great
value in rating the standing of a student, and in most courses are reflected in
the .final grade.
Examinations in individual or small group studies may or may not be given,
dependent upon the character of the subject and the nature of the instruction.
No re-examination will be given in any course for the purpose of raising
a grade obtained therein on a prior examination unless the student again
regularly takes the course, or in the case of individual studies, does further
work as may be required.

Curriculum
Formal Class Studies. The curriculum is designed primarily for formal
and intensive classroom work based upon the study and analysis of cases,
supplemented by library reading and investigation. After the first year it
permits a highly flexible program for the individual student.
Individual Studies. Individual and small group studies are available after
the first year, upon such conditions and for such credit as may be approved by
the professor in charge and the Dean.
Required Subjects. Passing grades in the following subjects are required
for graduation for all students receiving the degree of Juris Doctor or
Bachelor of Laws:
(I) All first-year courses.
( 2) Profession of the Bar (I).
( 3) Legal Clinic, Civil Branch ( not required for members of the Legal
Publications Board) .
Inasmuch as three-year students must carry extremely heavy work to satisfy
degree requirements, they are advised to attend an additional summer session
in order to take advantage of the opportunities afforded by the legal publications and the clinics, both of which are of the utmost importance.

Limitation of Work. The curriculum for the first year represents what is
thought to be the maximum amount of work which can be done by a good
student under favorable conditions. Students who are under any serious
handicaps such as physical disability, the necessity of earning part of their
expenses, commuting for long distances, or are otherwise handicapped should
reduce their programs accordingly.
No first-year student may register in any course other than those herein
indicated for first-year students except by permission of the Dean. No student
after the first year may register for more than fifteen or less than ten hours
per week except by permission of the D ean. Any student may be further limited
in his registration if in the opinion of the Dean he cannot undertake the work
desired with prospects of success.
In the fourth year, not less than ten semester-hours of credit must be obtained in each semester.

FINANCIAL REGULATIONS

Bills. The Division of Student Finance, Room 15 6, Ward Memorial Build-

ing, issues and makes all adjustments on student bills. These bills are mailed
to the address indicated on the billing card which is filled out by the student
at the time of registration. Each bill is due ten days from the date of the
bill and is paid at the Cashier's Office, Ward Memorial Building. Each
student is responsible for the receipt of his bill. In the event that a tuition
bill is not received within three days from the date of registration, the student
should make application immediately at the Division of Student Finance.
31

�The dee dates of bills cannot be extended because students fail to receive
their bills.

Installments. A student who wishes to pay his tu1t10n in installments may
make application at the Division of Student Finance, Room 15 6, Ward Memorial Building, at least one day before his bill is due. An Installment Fee
of $1.00 is charged for payment of the bill in two installments; an Installment Fee of $2.00 is charged for payment of the bill in more than two
installments.
Financial Obligations. No student who is delinquent in the payment of
tuition or other fees, or against whom the University holds record of indebtedness, will be given a diploma of graduation, a certificate of scholastic
standing, or a transcript of record, until such indebtedness has been fully
paid. A student who owes tuition or other fees at the close of a semester
will not be permitted to take his final examinations or to receive credit for
that semester. Registration in the University is provisional and subject to
cancellation by the Director of Student Finance at any time until bills are
paid.
Withdrawals and Refunds. Official withdrawal blanks are available at
the office of the School of Law. Students who withdraw before the end of
the first two weeks are held for no charge other than the Matriculation Fee.
Students who withdraw after the first two weeks and before the end of the
fourth week are held for all fees plus one-quarter of the tuition charges.
Students who withdraw after the end of the fourth week and before the
end of the eighth week are held for all fees plus one-half of the tuition
charges. Students who withdraw after the middle of the semester are held
for tuition and all fees. In the case of exclusion for non-payment
of tuition, the same charges are made in accordance with the above dates.
In all cases, the date on which the official withdrawal notice is received at
the Student Finance Office, or the date of formal exclusion, is used in figuring
any adjustments on tuition.
Student Bank. The University maintains a student bank at the Cashier's
Office, Ward Memorial Building, as an accommodation to students. Pass
books are used, as in a commercial bank, and students may write only counter
checks against their deposits, payable to themselves. There is no charge for
this service, and no interest is paid on deposits.
General Expenses. The expenses of a student for the academic year, including tuition, books, board and room, and incidentals, approximate $1,000.

The Elbert H. Gary Library
The Elbert H. Gary Library of some 110,000 volumes housed in the Elbert
H. Gary Library Building represents chiefly the gifts of the late Elbert H.
Gary, LL.B., . 1867, LL.D., 1922. It ranks among the five largest law school
libraries in the United States and includes substantially all the reported
decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and territories,
Great Britain, Canada, and Australia, together with their statutes and session
32

�laws, and all subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases,
textbooks, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary to form a complete working
collection of Anglo-American law. In addition there is a very representative
collection of volumes upon Commercial law, which includes the codes, decisions, and journals of all modern European countries, adequate resources
for research in Roman and medireval law, and a good working collection of
volumes upon Japanese and Chinese law. The Theodore S. Chapman and
Robert 0. Farrell collections of Mexican law supplement a useful group of
some five thousand volumes on Latin-American law. A large collection of
treatises and periodicals upon international law is supplemented by many
treaties and diplomatic documents, and the whole permits useful work to be
carried on in the field of public international law. The Library maintains
an especially complete collection of volumes and documents upon the criminal law and its administration.

Pictures
The School's collection of pictures, now numbering some 2,500 pieces, copiously illustrates the history, personnel, and customs of the legal profession,
not only in Great Britain and the United States, but all over the world. It
represents acquisitions accumulated during the past thirty years, partly by
purchase, partly by gift from alumni and other friends. Personal search has
been made in nearly every country of Europe for portraits and scenes to illustrate other systems of law; many of these are unique and irreplaceable. A
recent acquisition in this field is a series of portraits of Swiss jurists, obtained
through Dr. Max Huber, late judge of the World Court.
The collection includes some forty oil paintings, and about 1,500 etchings
and engravings. A special series is a set of twenty large platinum photographs
of portraits of eminent British judges in the National Gallery of Portraits,
colored by a London artist to show the costumes. The larger portraits are
framed for display on the walls of lecture rooms, Library reading-room,
and corridors.

Northwestern University Press
Northwestern University Press is an Illinois corporation affiliated with
Northwestern University, organized in 1922. Its President is Nathan William
MacChesney. Its Board of Directors is made up from members of the Board
of Trustees, the faculty, and alumni of the University. Its purpose is to
publish legal periodicals and other legal literature. Communications should
be addressed to Mrs. E. B. Watkins, Business Manager.

The Journal of Air Law
The Journal of Air Law, edited by Northwestern University School of Law
and University of Southern California School of Law in conjunction with the
Air Law Institute, began with the January number, 1930, and is published
quarterly by Northwestern University Press. On its editorial board are many
widely recognized authorities.
33

�The Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology
The Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology is now in its thirtieth
year. It is edited by Professor Robert H. Gault, of the Department of Psychology of Northwestern University, assisted by Professor Newman F . Baker
of the School of Law, and a board of other widely reputed scientists and
scholars interested in the field of its activity. It contains a Department of
Police Science, edited by Mr. Fred E. Inbau. It is published bi-monthly by
the Northwestern University Press.

The Illinois Law Review
The Illinois Law Review is in its thirty-fourth year. Founded by the faculty
of this School in 1906, it was edited jointly from 1924 to 1932 by the faculty,
alumni, and students of this School and the law schools of the University of
Chicago and University of Illinois. In 1932 it was reorganized under a Board
of Managers consisting wholly of Northwestern alumni, students, and faculty,
and placed under the editorial control of the Legal Publications Board. The
aim of the editors is to provide a legal journal of interest and value to lawyers
throughout the United States. Each number contains leading articles of general
interest, book reviews, and notes on cases. It is published monthly except from
July to October by the Northwestern University Press.

The Legal Publications Board
The Legal Publications Board is the Editorial D epartment of the Northwestern University Press. The notes and comments published in the several
journals are for most part written by law school students. Selection of
the student members of the Board is based upon scholastic standing and
competitive writing. Membership on the Board is the highest honor a student
can attain in the School of Law, and of itself constitutes a preferred rating for
the purpose of obtaining employment after graduation.
The Junior Bar Association each year presents gold keys to the students who
are elected to membership on the Legal Publications Board. It also gives
awards for the three best contributions for publication made by members of
the Board.
The Board for 1938- 1939 included the following members:

And the Officers of the Student Board

The James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation
In 1926 Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond established the James Nelson and Anna
Louise Raymond Foundation by a gift of $200,000, the income from which,
subject to certain annuities, provides a legal clinic for the poor. It was organized under the superintendence of a joint committee of the School of Law,
United Charities, and the Chicago Bar Association. Since its establishment
the income from the Foundation has been generously supplemented by further
gifts from Mrs. Raymond. The work of the clinic is under the direction of
attorneys of the School of Law, who are generously aided by the staff of the
Legal Aid Bureau of the United Charities. The work of the School and that
of the Legal Aid Bureau are highly coordinated. Indigent claimants and
defendants in every type of case are represented. The student comes in intimate
contact with the routine and problems of office practice and litigation generally.
The claims successfully prosecuted aggregate thousands of dollars annually,
and the legitimate defenses afforded indigent persons are equally valuable.
The Foundation and clinics were the first to be set up on behalf of a law school.

For details of the clinic work required, see the Curriculum.
In connection with the work of the Legal Clinics, Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond established the James N!!lson Raymond Fellowship, by gifts totaling
$35,000, the income from the Fund to be awarded annually for graduate fellowships. See Fellowships, Scholarships, Prizes.

Melvin M. Hawley, his associates at the Chicago bar. The income from this
fund is applicable to the general purpose of cultivating research, study, and

topics of the law involving the development of trade, industry, and commerce;
and specifically by means of the delivery of lectures or other form of instruction; the publication of meritorious essays, monographs, or books; the aid of

only "due allowance" for differences in cost.

Unfair Competition acts, and Trade Practice Conference Rules approved by the Federal Trade Commission.

HE SCHOOL OF LAW

was founded in 1859 by

Thomas Hoyne, with Henry Booth as its

first dean. In 1873, as the Union College of Law,
it came under the joint control of Northwestern
University and the old University of Chicago.
When the latter institution ceased to exist, the
School came under the control of Northwestern
University, and in 1891 became Northwestern
University School of Law.
The School is located in Chicago in two new
buildings overlooking Lake Michigan at Lake
Shore Drive and Chicago Avenue, within a few
moments' walk of Chicago's Loop district. Levy
Mayer Hall is the gift of Mrs. Levy Mayer in
memory of her husband, an emi nent member of
the Chicago bar. The Elbert H. Gary Library

�Scope of Program

T

of modern law schools is decisively marked by the interests
they serve and by the programs which reflect those interests.
The development of a law school program to serve the interests of the
great area and population of the Middle West and to provide the training
required for its young lawyers imposes heavy obligations upon a university.
No other great territory focuses so many interests upon a single community;
no other community has so many problems for a law school.
Chicago is the great agricultural market and trade center of the nation;
the great live-stock and dairying market; the great food-processing center for
meats, breads, and fruits; the great industrial and manufacturing center; the
great wholesale and retail market of finished goods. Attendant upon these
is the country's most extensive transportation network of rail, inland waterway, highway, and airway facilities. All these in turn require enormous
credit and banking resources, extensive sites, plants, and office buildings for
their officials, tradesmen, and clerical staffs. Sustained by such activities is
a massive population which requires all the institutions of communication,
subsistence, convenience, pleasure, art, and learning of modern society; out
of such activities arise all the legal problems incident to industry and trad e
known to the law.
Of equal import to a law school are the institutions of government requisite
to such a territory and community. The problems of local government as
police, health, sanitation, public education, amusements, traffic, transportation, and taxation, which beset the hundreds of governmental units in the
vast Chicago metropolitan area; the problems incident to the numerous
governmental agencies of the State of Illinois and the other great states to
which the business interests of the Chicago region are subject; the problems
created by the far flung agencies and activities of the national government
throughout this great middle country-all problems within the scope of the
professional service of a lawyer-impose responsibilities and give opportunities which a law school must meet on behalf of the profession.
Of even greater importance to a people and profession devoted to the
principles of independence and freedom in all their relations are the men,
women, and children whose interests as individuals lie at the base of society,
and whose protection is frequently overlooked in the more dramatic struggles
of business and government.
An institution for training men capable of doing the work of the law
in such an area must itself have organization. It must have officers and
trustees whose personalities and experience are representative of the interests
it serves; a faculty of such man-power and learning as to provide instruction
and training and promote scholarship in so vast a field of law and government.
It must have buildings and quarters which facilitate the work of the students
who must cover such a field in the short period of three or four years; a
library which makes available the law and legal literature of every country
whose law may be brought into question by the cosmopolitan population and
aggressive men of business who operate within such vast territory of trade
and commerce. It should have a student body small enough to obviate the
HE CHARACTER

10

�deadening influence of large formal classes, and of such character and scholastic attainments as to generate the intellectual drive required for individual
studies. Its curriculum must cover the problems the profession must meet;
it must be rigid enough to insure the understanding of basic principles, yet
flexibl e enough to allow the widest choice on behalf of the student who desires
mastery over some small segment of so large a field of professional service.
The School is committed to such policies. It has a large faculty composed
of able teachers, distinguished scholars, and experienced lawyers. Its student
body is selected through operation of the highest standards of admission, and
is the smallest of any of the national schools. It has an extensive and flexible
curriculum of formal, small group, and individual studies. Due to the generous
support of the Illinois and Chicago bars it is enabled to offer many studies in
local law and special subjects which normally cannot be reflected in a curriculum. Its legal clinics for practical study and experience were the first to be
established. The three legal periodicals and the foundations, institutes, and
laboratory fostered by the School and its friends promote the widest research
and publication on the part of its undergraduate and graduate students,
faculty, and members of the profession generally. Its buildings, library, and
other facilities are designed to make the School's program adequate to its
responsibilities for providing thorough professional training.

F

Admission

year students may enter in September at the beginning of the school
year. Upperclassmen may enter at the beginning of the fall, winter, or
summer terms.
An applicant for admission to the School must file an application for
admission, and must furnish proof of having obtained a bachelor's degree in
arts or science from an approved college, or of having satisfactorily completed three years' study in an approved college. A complete transcript of his
college record, together with evidence of any degree he may have received,
must be filed with his application, or as soon thereafter as it can be obtained.
If he has done work in another law school or any other school in addition to
his college work, a complete transcript of such work must also be filed with
his application.
An application should be supported by two or more letters from professors
who know the applicant well, stating what they know of his abilities, habits,
and character generally; also by a photograph. A blank form for making
application will be supplied on request.
If the applicant resides in or near Chicago, he may be requested to come to
the School for a conference with the Dean.
An application must be accompanied by the matriculation fee. This fee will
be returned only if the applicant is not admitted.
In the discretion of the Dean, applicants not exceeding ten in number for
any one year who possess the general educational qualifications for admission
to the Illinois bar may be admitted as special students not candidates for a
degree.
The admission of students from other la"· schools and the granting of adIRST

11

�vanced standing for credits obtained in any such school rests within the
discretion of the Dean of the School.
No applicant will be admitted who has been denied re-admission to anoth er
law school.
Auditors who have already been admitted to the bar and who are not
candidates for a degree may be admitted to certain courses in such numbers
as will not interfere with the work of the students registered for such courses.
The total number of students admitted each year is limited to four hundred,
exclusive of graduate students.
Summer Term. Any applicant in good standing at a member school of
the Association of American Law Schools will be admitted for the summer
term. His application for admission must be accompanied by a certificate of
good standing.

Pre-Legal Study
Among the many values to be derived from college study, maturity is of
peculiar importance to the study of law. Such maturity comes from rigorous
intellectual discipline derived from the mastery of any study undertaken by a
student, rather than from the mere content of the subject matter.
While students may enter the School of Law with either three or four years
of college preparation, it is the opinion of the faculty that only relatively
mature students should enter before securing an academic degree. But it is
also the opinion of the faculty that a student who is qualified to enter law
school at the end of his third year in college will become a much stronger
lawyer by spending four years rather than three in the law school. The
greater facilities of the law school for doing independent work during the
later years of his course develop the student's power far more than does
the additional year in college.
Students differ in their tastes, and college courses differ in the stimulation
and discipline afforded the student. The School of Law, therefore, does not
prescribe particular college courses for admission nor does it recommend
specific courses. In this it follows the judgment of the Association of American
Law Schools. The preparation of each student for law study is left to the
individual and the college.

D

Degrees

will be conferred by the Trustees of the University upon students
who are recommended therefor by the Faculty of the School of Law.

is one of distinction or special distinction, the degree of Juris Doctor may be
awarded cum Laude or magna cum Laude.
Degree of Bachelor of Laws (Six-year program)
I. The degree of Bachelor of Laws will be conferred upon students
admitted on the basis of three years ( ninety semester-hours) of high-grade
credit from an approved college (not including any credit for law study ),

When so admitted, the candidate shall be entitled to receive the degree of
Bachelor of Laws upon the completion of three academic years of residence
and eighty-four semester-hours of law work. But the degree shall not
be granted unless the candidate has attained an average standing of 75 in
respect of the whole amount of such work.
Degree of Master of Law s. The degree of M aster of Laws will be conferred only upon students who have obtained a first degree in law from this
or some other university or college having equal requirements in that regard.

School and the community for graduate study are in all practical respects
unlimited.

Combined Degrees
Degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science

upon the completion of such equivalent courses in the Law School as may be
ap proved by the faculties of the Law School and the College of Liberal Arts.
II. A student presenting three years of college credit from another appro'Ved college of arts or science may, upon the satisfactory completion of th e
first year's work in the Law School, receive from this faculty a certificate
requesting the faculty of his original college to recognize his work in this Law
School as the equivalent of a fourth year in college and to recommend him for
the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science in that college or university.
14

�Degree of Bachelor of Science in Law. The degree of Bachelor of
Science in Law will be conferred upon students who are a dmitted to the Law
School on the basis of three years of college credit, and who are not candidr:tes
for the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science, upon the satisfactory compl etion
of the first year's work in the Law School.

Application for Degree
Application for a degree, accompanied by the graduation fee, must be mad e
in writing and filed with the Secretary during the period the candidate is
registered in the School. An application for a degree will not be accepted
after a student's registration has terminated.

Examinations
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. They are for the
purpose of affording a basis for the determin ation of the student's relative
mastery of the subject upon which he is examined. But they provide onl y
one source, though an important one, for such purpose. In addition, the written
work done in connection with a course, the preparation of assignments for
recitation as reflected in classroom discussion, the contacts generally with the
professor in charge incident to the development of a course, are all of great
value in rating the standing of a student, an d in most courses are reflected in
the final grade.
Examinations in individu al or small group studies may or may not be given,
dependent upon the character of the subject and the nature of the instruction.
No re- exa mination will be given in any course for the purpose of raising
a grade obtained therein on a prior examination unless the student again
regularly takes the course, or in the case of individu al studies, does further
work as may be required.

Grades
Grad es are given in accordance with the following ·scale:
85 to 100-A (Excellent)
75 to 84-B (Good)
(Passi ng)
65 to 74-C (Fair)
j
55 to 64-D (Poor)
F ( Failure)
0 to 54-F (Failure)
Grades in individu al courses will not be reported to students excep t as P
or F. A weighted average numerical grade will be given to each student
covering the work of each semester; also at the end of each academic year
covering his work to· that date.
In Illin ois Law Lectures, individu al studies, an d courses in which no formal
examination is given, only grades of P or F will be recorded. Neither such
grades nor those received at other schools will be considered in determining
the weighted average grade.
A student who at the end of a year has failed to mainta in an average grade
of 65 to that date shall be ineligible for further registration in the School.
A student who fails to maintain an average of 68 over his entire course shall
be ineligible for a degree.

�Promotion
Each applicant must have obtained, for promotion:
To the Second Year ........................................ 24 semester-hours
To the Third Year ..........................................48 semester-hours
To th e Fourth Year ........................................ 72 semester-hours

Curriculum
Formal Class Studies. The curricu lum is designed primarily for forma l
and intensive classroom work based upon the study and ana lysis of cases, supp lemented by library reading and investigation. After the first year it permits a
highly flexibl e program for the individual student.
Individual Studies. Individual and small group studi es are available after
the first year, upon such conditions and for such credit as may be approved by
the professor in charge and the Dean.
Required Subjects. Passing grades in the fo ll owing subjects are req uired
for graduation for all students rece iving the degree of J uris Doctor or Bachelor
of Laws:
( 1) All first-year courses.
(2)

Profession of the Bar ( 1).

(3) Legal Clinic, Ci'Vil Branch (not required for members of the Lega l
Publications Board).
Inasmuch as three-year students must carry extremely heavy work to satisfy
degree requirem ents, they are advised to attend an additiona l summer session
in order to take advantage of the opportunities afforded by the legal publications an d the clinics, both of which are of the utmost importa nce.
Limitation of Work. The curriculum for th e firs t year represents what is
thought to be the maximum amount of work which can be done by a good student
und er favorable conditions. Students who are under any serious handicap such
as physical disability, the necessity of earn ing pa rt of their expenses, commuting
for long distances, or otherwise, shou ld reduce th eir programs according ly.
No first-year student may register in any course other than those herein
indicated for first-year students except by permission of the Dean. No student
after the first year may register for more than fifteen nor less than ten hours
per week except by permission of the Dean. Any student may be further limited
in his registration if in the opinion of the Dean he cannot undertake the work
desired with prospects of success.
In the fourth year, not less than ten semester-hours of credit must be obtained
in each semester.

The Elbert H. Gary Library
The Elbert H. Gary Library of some 110,000 volumes housed in the Elbert
H. Gary Library Building represents chiefly the gifts of the late Elbert H.
Gary, LL.B., 1867, LL.D., 1922. It ranks among the five largest law school libraries in the United States and includes substantially all the reported decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and territories, Great
Britain, Canada, and Australia, together with their statutes and session laws,
and all subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, textbooks, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary to form a complete working collection of Anglo-American law. In addition there is a very representativ e
collection of volumes upon Commercial law, which includes the codes, decisions, and journals of all modern European countries, adequate resources for
research in Roman and medi.eval law, and a good working collection of
volumes upon Japanese and Chinese law. The Theodore S. Chapman and
Robert 0. Farrell collections of Mexican law supplement a useful group of
some five thousand volumes on Latin-American law. A large collection of
treatises and periodicals upon international law is supplemented by many
treaties and diplomatic documents, and the whole permits useful work to be
carried on in the field of public international law. The Library maintains an
especially complete collection of volumes and documents upon the criminal law
and its administration.

Pictures
The School's collection of pictures, now numbering some 2,500 pieces, copiously illustrates the history, personnel, and customs of the legal profession, not
only in Great Britain and the Un ited States, but all over the world. It represents acquisitions accumulated during the past thirty years, partly by purchase,
33

�partly by gift from alumni and other friends. Personal search has been made in
nearly every country of Europe for portraits and scenes to illustrate other
systems of law; many of these are unique and irreplaceable. A recent acquisition
in this field is a series of portraits of Swiss jurists, obtained through Dr. Max
Huber, late judge of the World Court.
The collection includes some 40 oil paintings, and about 1,500 etchings and
engravings. A special series is a set of 20 large platinum photographs of portraits of eminent British judges in the National Gallery of Portraits, colored
by a London artist to show the costumes. The larger portraits are framed for
display on the walls of lecture rooms, Library reading-room, and corridors.

Northwestern University Press
Northwestern University Press is an Illinois corporation affiliated with
Northwestern University, organized in 1922. Its President is Nathan William
MacChesney. Its Board of Directors is made up from members of the Board
of Trustees, the faculty, and alumni of the University. Its purpose is to
publish legal periodicals and other legal literature. Communications should
be addressed to Mrs. E. B. Watkins, Business Manager.

The Journal of Air Law
The Journal of Air Law, edited by Northwestern University School of Law
and University of Southern California School of Law in conjunction with the
Air Law Institute, began with the January number, 1930, and is published
quarterly by Northwestern University Press. On its editorial board are many
widely recognized authorities.

The Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology
The Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology is now in its twenty-ninth
year. It is edited by Professor Robert H. Gault, of the Department of Psychology of Northwestern University, assisted by Professor Newman F. Baker
of the School of Law and a board of other widely reputed scientists and scholars
interested in the field of its activity. It contains a Department of Police Science,
edited by Mr. Fred E. Inbau and the staff of the Scientific Crime Detection
Laboratory. It is published bi-monthly by the Northwestern University Press.

The Illinois Law Review
The Illinois Law Re'View is in its thirty-third year. Founded by the faculty
of this School in 1906, it was edited jointly from 1924 to 1932 by the faculty,
alumni, and students of this School and the law schools of the University of
Chicago and University of Illinois. In 1932 it was reorganized under a Board
of Managers consisting wholly of Northwestern alumni, students, and faculty,
and placed under the editorial control of the Legal Publications Board. The aim
of the editors is to provide a legal journal of interest and value to lawyers
throughout the United States. Each number contains leading articles of general
interest, book reviews, and notes on cases. It is published monthly except from
July to October by the Northwestern University Press.
34

�The Legal Publications Board
The Legal Publications Board is the Editorial Department of the Northwestern University Press. The notes and comments published in the several
journals are for most part written by law school students. Selection of
the student members of the Board is based upon scholastic standing and
competitive writing. Membership on the Board is the highest honor a student
can attain in the School of Law, an d of itself constitutes a preferred rating for
the purpose of obtaining employment after graduation.
The Junior Bar Association each year presents gold keys to the students who
arc elected to membership on the Legal Publications Board. It also gives
awards for the three best contributions for publication made by members of
the Board.
The Board for 1937-1938 included the following members:

The James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation
Legal Clinics
In 1926 Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond established the J ames Nelson and Anna
Louise Raymond Foundation by a gift of $200,000, th e income from which,
subject to certain annuities, provides a legal clinic for the poor. It was organ ized under the superintendence of a joint committee of the School of Law,
35

�United Charities, and the Chicago Bar Association. Since its establishment
the income from the Foundation has been generously supplemented by further
gifts from Mrs. Raymond. The work of the clinic is under the direction of
attorneys of the Law School, who are generously aided by the staff of the
Legal Aid Bureau of the United Charities. The work of the Law School and
that of the Legal Aid Bureau are highly coordinated. Indigent claimants and
defendants in every type of case are represented. The student comes in intimate
contact with the routine and problems of office practice and litigation generally.
The claims successfully prosecuted aggregate thousands of dollars annually,
and the legitimate defenses afforded indigent persons are equally valuable.
The Foundation and clinics were the first to be set up on behalf of a law school.
For details of the clinic work required, see the Curriculum.
In connection with the work of the Legal Clinics, Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond established the James Nelson Raymond Fellowship, by gifts totalling
$35,000, the income from the Fund to be awarded annually for graduate fellowships. See Fellowships, Scholarships, Prizes.

Myres, Mrs. Joseph Schaffner, Mrs. Otto L. Schmidt, all of Chicago, and the
Honorable Julian vV. Mack, of New York. Julius Rosenthal (1828-1905) was an
eminent and beloved member of the Chicago bar and Librarian of the Chicago
Law Institute for nearly forty years. He was the most learned lawyer of his
time in Chicago, did more than any other man to establish the best standards
of legal scholarship in this region, and by numerous gifts of books indicated
his interest in the 'welfare of this School.
The present capital fund of the Foundation is $69,200, the income from
which is applicable generally for the cultivation of legal literature, and specifically by means of the publication of meritorious essays, monographs, and books

Melvin M. Hawley, his associates at the Chicago bar. The income from this
fund is applicable to the general purpose of cultivating research, study, and

�THE LAW SCHOOL GARDEN

�T

HE SCHOOL OF LAW was founded in 1859 by
Thomas Hoyne, with Henry Booth as its
first dean. In 1873, as the Union College of Law,
it came under the joint control of Northwestern
University and the old University of Chicago.
'vVhen the latter institution ceased to exist, the
School came under the control of Northwestern
University, and in 1891 became Northwestern
University School of Law.
The School is located in Chicago in two new
buildings overlooking Lake Michigan at Lake
Shore Drive and Chicago Avenue, within a few
moments' walk of Chicago's Loop district. Levy
Mayer Hall is the gift of Mrs. Levy Mayer in
memory of her husband, an eminent member
of the Chicago bar. The Elbert H. Gary Library
Building, which houses the Elbert H. Gary
Library, is the gift of the late Elbert H. Gary,
of the Class of 1867. A beautiful cloistered garden enclosed by an arched wall connecting the

wings of the two buildings, is the gift of Mrs.
Hortense Mayer Hirsch, daughter of Mrs.
Mayer and the late Levy Mayer.

�Scope of Program

T

HE CHARACTER of modern law schools is decisively marked by the interests
they serve and by the programs which reflect those interests.
The development of a law school program to serve the interests of the
great area and population of the Middle West and to provide the training
required for its young lawyers imposes heavy obligations upon a university.
No other great territory focuses so many interests upon a single community;
no other community has so many problems for a law school.

Chicago is the great agricultural market and trade center of the nation;
the great live stock and dairying market; the great food processing center for
meats, breads, and fruits; the great industrial and manufacturing center; the
great wholesale and retail market of finished goods. Attendant upon these
is the country's most extensive transportation network of rail, inland waterway, highway, and airway facilities . All these in turn require enormous
credit and banking resources, extensive sites, plants, and office buildings for
their officials, tradesmen and clerical staffs. Sustained by such activities is
a massive population which requires all the institutions of communication,
subsistence, convenience, pleasure, art, and learning of modern society ; out
of such activities arise all the legal problems incident to industry and trade
known to the law.
Of equal import to a law school are the institutions of government requisite
to such a territory and community. The problems of local government as
police, health, sanitation, public education, amusements, traffic, transportation, and taxation, which beset the hundreds of governmental units in the
vast Chicago metropolitan area; the problems incident to the numerous
governmental agencies of the State of Illinois and the other great states to
which the business interests of the Chicago region are subject; the problems
created by the far flung agencies and activities of the national government
throughout this great middle country-all problems within the scope of the
professional service of a lawyer-impose responsibilities and give opportunities which a law school must meet on behalf of the profession.
Of even greater importance to a people and profession devoted to the
principles of independence and freedom in all their relations are the men,
women, and children whose interests as individuals lie at the base of society,
and whose protection is frequently overlooked in the more dramatic struggles
of business and government.
An institution for training men capable of doing the work of the law
in such an area must itself have organization. It must have officers and
trustees whose personalities and experience are representative of the interests
it serves ; a faculty of such man-power and learning as to provide instruction
and training and promote scholarship in so vast a field of law and government.
It must have buildings and quarters which facilitate the work of the students
who must cover such a field in the short period of three or four years ; a

10

�library which makes available the law and legal literature of every country
whose law may be brought into question by the cosmopolitan population and
aggressi ve men of business who operate within such vast territory of trade
and commerce. It should have a student body small enough to obviate the
deadening influence of large formal classes, and of such character and scholastic attainments as to generate the intellectual drive required for individual
studies. Its curriculum must cover the problems the profession must meet;
it must be rigid enough to insure the understanding of basic principles, yet
flexible enough to allow the widest choice on behalf of the student who desires
mastery over some small segment of so large a field of professional service.
The School is committed to such policies. It has a large faculty composed
of able teachers, di stinguished scholars, and experienced lawyers. I ts student
body is selected through operation of the highest standards of admission, and
is the smallest of any of the national schools. It has the most extensive and
flexible curriculum of formal, small group, and individual studies offered by
any school. Due to the generous support of the Illinois and Chicago bars it
is enabled to offer many studies in local law and special subjects which
normally cannot be reflected in a curriculum. Its legal clinics for practical
study and experience were the first to be established and are the most fully
developed of any in the country. The three legal periodicals and the foundations, institutes, and laboratory fostered by the School and its friends promote
the widest research and publication on the part of its undergraduate and
graduate students, faculty, and members of the profession generally. Its
buildings, library, and other facilities are designed to make the School's program adequate to its responsibilities for providing thorough professional
training.

Admission

F

year students may enter in September at the beginning of the school
year. Upper classmen may enter at the beginning of the fall, winter or
summer terms.
An applicant for admission to the School must file an application for
admission, and must furnish proof of having obtained a bachelor's degree in
Arts or Science from an approved college, or of having satisfactorily completed
three years' study in an approved college. A complete transcript of his college
record, together with evidence of any degree he may have received, must be
filed with his application, or as soon thereafter as it can be obtained. If he
has done work in another Jaw school or any other school in addition to his
college work, a complete transcript of such work must also be filed with his
application.
An application should be supported by two or more letters from professors
who know the applicant well, stating what they know of his abilities, habits,
and character generally; also by a photograph. A blank form for making ap·
plication will be supplied on request.
IR ST

11

�If the applicant resides in or near Chicago, he will be requested to come to
the School for a conference with the Dean.
An application must be accompanied by the matriculation fee. This fee will
be returned only if the applicant is not admitted.
In the discretion of the Dean, applicants not exceeding ten in number for
any one year, who possess the general educational qualifications for admission
to the Illinois bar may be admitted as special st11dents not candidates for a
degree.
The admission of students from other law schools and the granting of advanced standing for credits obtained in any such school rests within the
discretion of the Dean of the School.
No applicant will be ad1nitted who has been den-ied re-adinission to another
law school.
Auditors who have already been admitted to the bar and who are not
candidates for a degree may be admitted to certain courses in such numbers
as will not interfere with the work of the students registered for such courses.
Summer Term. Any applicant in good standing at a member school of
the Association of American Law Schools will be admitted for the summer
term. His application for admission must be accompanied by a certificate of
good standing.

Curriculum
Formal Class Room Studies

T

I-IE FIRST two years of the curriculum are designed primarily for formal
and intensive class room work, based upon the study and analysis of
cases, supplemented by library reading and investigation. To this end many
courses have been developed in which the materials for study have been realigned. While historical and other materials of value have been retained,
many older and fragmentary courses have been combined, subject matter no
longer vital has been discarded, and fresh materials reflecting current problems and developments have been included. In addition, methods and technics
of teaching have been evolved appropriate to the use of the materials. These
improvements reduce the period of the student's formal study and at the same
time cover the field of law more adequately.

Individual Studies
The curriculum for the third and fourth years is designed to permit a
highly flexible laboratory program for the individual student. While many
formal courses are available for the third and fourth year students who prefer
them, individual and small group studies requiring independent work on the
part of the student are encouraged. In almost every course after the first year
there are some more mature and industrious students who desire to expand
their work by way of investigation into important subjects collateral to the
main course. lndividual studies have therefore been niade available in all

12

�courses after the first year, and some subjects are restricted altogether to
such studies. But all indi vidual and small group work is so available only
upon such conditions and fo r such credit as may be approved by the professor in charge and the Dean.
Individual studies vary so widely with the problem, the student and the
professor, that rules for their development can not be adequately formulated.
They require the utmost flexibility. Certain things, however , about this type
of work are clear. It goes beyond the class room and library into the offices,
businesses, records, and affairs of the community at large, both in the formulation of the problems to be studied and in the mobilization of data pertinent
to them. It requires the constant supervision of the professor in charge, and
in many instances results in a product worthy of publication in some one of the
legal periodicals fostered by the School. The training is designed to develop
on the pa rt of the student the power of analys is, the ability to formulate new
problems, the capacity to bring pertinent sources of information and authority
to bear upon them, originality in both thought and expression, and the ultimate
power to handle the problems of a lawyer in the most acceptable professional
manner.

Required Subjects
Passing grades in the fo llowing subjects are required for graduation for
all students receiving the degree of Juris Doctor or Bachelor of Laws:
( 1) All first-year courses.
( 2) Profession of the Bar ( 1).
(3) Legal Clinic, Civil Branch (not required for members of the Legal
Publications Board).
Inasmuch as three-year students must carry extremely heavy work to
satisfy degree requirements, they are advised to attend an additional summer
session in order to take advantage of the opportunities afforded by the legal
publications and the clinics, both of which are of the utmost importance.

Limitation of Work
The curri culum for the first year represents what is thought to be the
max imum amount of work which can be done by a good student under favorable conditions. Students who are under any serious han di cap such as
physical disability, the necessity of earning part of their expenses, commuting for long distances, or otherwise, should reduce their programs
accordingly.
No fir st year student may register in any course other than those herein
indicated for first year students except by permission of the Dean. No student after the first year may regi ster for more than fifteen hours per week
except by permission of the Dean. Any student may be further limited in his
registration if in the opinion of the Dean he cannot undertake the work desired with prospects of success.
In the fourth year, not less than ten semester hours of credit must be obtained in each semester.

The Elbert H. Gary Library

T

HE Elbert H. Gary Library of some 110,000 volumes housed in the Elbert
H. Gary Library Building represents chiefly the gifts of the late E lbert
H. Gary, LLB., 1867, LLD., 1922. It ranks among the five largest law
school libraries in the United States and includes substantially all the reported decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and
territories, Great Britain, Canada, and A11stralia, together with their statutes
and session laws, and all subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, text books, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary to form a
complete working collection of Anglo-American law. In addition there is a
very representative collection of volumes upon Continental law, which includes
the codes, decisions, and journals of all modern European countries, adequate
resources for research in Roman and medfreval law, and a good working collection of volumes upon Japanese and Chinese law. The Theodore S. Chapman and Robert 0. Farrell collections of Mexican law supplement a useful
group of some five thousand volumes on Latin-American law. A large collection of treatises and periodicals upon international law is supplemented by
many treaties and diplomatic documents and the whole permits useful work
to be carried on in the field of public international law. The Library maintains an especially complete collection of volumes and documents upon the
criminal law and its administration.

Pictures
The School'~ collection of pictures, now numbering some 2,500 pieces,
copiously illustrates the history, personnel, and customs of the legal profession, not only in Great Britain and the United States, but all over the world.
It represents acquisitions accumulated during the past 30 years, partly by
purchase, partly by gift from alumni and other friends. Personal search has

29

�been made in nearly every country of Europe for portraits and scenes to illustrate other systems of Jaw; many of these are unique and irreplaceable. A
recent acquisition in this field is a series of portraits of Swiss jurists, obtained
through Dr. Max Huber, late judge of the World Court.
The collection includes some 40 oil paintings, and about 1,500 etchings and
engravings. A special series is a set of 20 large platinum photographs of
portraits of eminent British judges in the National Gallery of Portraits,
colored by a London artist to show the costumes. The larger portraits are
framed for display on the walls of lecture rooms, Library reading-room, and
corridors.
The cataloguing of the collection is now almost completed, and consists
of basic classification cards, with three cross-indices ( alphabetical, accessions,
location). The classification is into five groups : A, Portraits ( including
sculpture, caricatures, etc.), B, Places (including courthouses, law schools,
monuments, etc.), C, Scenes (including trial scenes from all periods and
places), D, Documents (including facsimiles), and E, Miscellaneous. In the
study of professional biography, it is now possible to refer here to the likeness of almost any judge or lawyer in our country who has reached distinction.

The James Nelson and
Anna Louise Raymond Foundation
Legal Clinics

I

1926 Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond established the James Nelson and
Anna Louise Raymond Foundati.on by a gift of $200,000, the income
from which, subject to certain annuities, provides a legal clinic for the poor.
It was organized under the superintendence of a joint committee of the
School of Law, United Charities, and the Chicago Bar Association. Since
its establishment the income from the Foundation, generously supplemented
by further gifts from Mrs. Raymond, the late Julius Rosenwald and several
leading Chicago law firms, has sustained the clinic in three branches, viz.,
the Civil, Industrial, and Criminal. These have been under the direction of
attorneys of the Law School, who have been generously aided by the staff
of the Legal Aid Bureau of the United Charities. In connection with each
clinic, instruction is given for a semester by the professor in charge, and
each student is required to investigate, prepare for trial, and in the event of
trial, take part in the conduct of several cases, under the direction of the
attorney in charge. The work of the Law School and that of the Legal Aid
Bureau are highly coordinated. In the Civil and Industrial branches, the
attorneys of the Law School maintain their offices at the Legal Aid Bureau.
Indigent claimants and defendants in every type of case are represented. The
student comes in intimate contact with the routine and problems of office
practice and litigation generally. The claims successfully prosecuted aggreN

30

�gate thousands of dollars annually, and the legitimate defenses afforded
indigent persons are equally valuable. The Foundation and clinics were the
first to be set up on behalf of a law school.
For details of the clinic work requfred, see the Curriculum.

HE LEGAL PUBLICATIONS BOARD is the Editorial Department of the
Northwestern University Press. The notes and comments published
in the several journals are for most part written by law school students.
Selection of the student members of the Board is based upon scholastic
standing and competitive writing. Membership on the Board is the highest
honor a student can attain in the School of Law, and of itself constitutes a
preferred rating for the purpose of obtaining employment after graduation.

The Junior Bar Association each year presents gold keys to the students
who are elected to membership on the Legal Publications Board. It also
gives awards for the three best contributions for publication made by members of the Board.

General Information
Limitation of Number of Students

T

HE TOTAL number of students admitted each year is limited to four
hundred, exclusive of graduate students. Selection is determined primarily by the quality of an applicant's college record, but many other factors
may be, and usualiy are considered.

Pre-Legal Course
Among the many values to be derived from college study, maturity is of
peculiar importance to the study of law. Such maturity comes from rigorous
intellectual discipline derived from the mastery of any study undertaken by a
student, rather than from the mere content of the subject matter.
While students may enter the School of Law with either three or four years
of college preparation, it is the opinion of the faculty that only relatively
mature students should enter before securing an .academic degree. But it is
also the opinion of the faculty that a student who is qualified to enter law
school at the end of his third year in college will become a much stronger
lawyer by spending four years rather than three in the law school. The
greater facilities of the law school for doing independent work during the
later years of his course develop the student's power far more than does
the additional year in college.
Students differ in their tastes, and college courses differ in the stimulation
and discipline afforded the student. The School of Law, therefore, does not
prescribe particular college courses for admission nor does it recommend
specific courses. In this it follows the judgment of the Association of American Law Schools. The preparation of each student for law study is left to
the particular individual and the particular college.
In order that students in this University may have some assistance in
selecting studies, the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and the Dean of
the School of Law have appointed a committee to advise pre-legal students
who may desire suggestions with reference to the studies to be pursued by
them. This committee is composed of Professors Carey, DeLong, Grose,
Hohman, and Terry, of the College of Liberal Arts; and Professors Havighurst, Spaeth, and Wallace of the School of Law.

�Examinations
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. They are for the
purpose of affording a basis for the determination of the student's relative
mastery of the subject upon which he is examined. But they provide only
one source, though an important one, for such purpose. In addition, the
written work done in connection with a course, the preparation of assignments for recitation as reflected in class room discussion, the contacts generally with the professor in charge incident to the development of a course,
are all of great value in rating the standing of a student, and in most courses
are reflected in the final grade.
Examinations in individual or small group studies may or may not be given,
dependent upon the character of the subject and the nature of the instruction.
No re-examination will be given in any course for the purpose of raising
a grade obtained th erein on a prior examination unless the student again
regularly takes the course, or in the case of individual studies, does further
work as may be required.

Six grades are given :

Grades
S-Satisfactory.
D-Inferior, but passing.
F-Failure.

A-Excellent.
B-Superior.
C-Average.

Grades A, B, C, D, and S may be applied toward requirements for promotion or for a degree, provided that not more than twenty per cent of the
total credits required for a degree shall be satisfied by D grade credits. The
grade S is restricted to courses in which formal examinations are not feasible.

Promotion
Each applicant must have obtained, for promotion:
To the Second Year ........ . .. . .. .. . . 24 semester-hours
To the Third Year ................ . . .48 semester-h ours
T o the Fourth Year . . . . . . .. . ..... . . . 72 semester-hours

Honors
The faculty at the fir st meeting of each school year select for inclusion in
the Honor List the names of those students whose standing is such as in the
opinion of the faculty deserves particular mention.
Credits obtained at other schools are reckoned in determining the student's
standing in relation to the Honor List, but to no greater amount than
twenty-four semester-hours.

CURRICULUM

Formal Class Room Studies
The first two years of the curriculum are design,d primarily for formal and intensive class room work, based upon the study and analysis of cases, supplemented by
library reading and investigation. To this end many courses have been developed
in which the materials for study have been re-aligned. While historical and other materials of value have been retained, many older and fragmentary courses have been
combined, subject matter no longer vital has been discarded , and fresh materials reflecting current problems and developments have been included. In addition, methods and
technics of teaching have been evolved appropriate to the use of the materials. These
improvements reduce the period of the student's formal study and at the same time
cover the field of law more adequately.

Individual Studies
The curriculum for the third and fourth years is designed to permit a highly flexible
laboratory program for the individual student. While many formal courses are available for the third and fourth year students who prefer them, individual and small group

· 4.

�studies requiring independent work on the pa rt of the student are encouraged. In
almost every course after the first year there are some more mature and industrious
students who desire to expand their work by way of investigation into important subjects collateral to the main course. Individual studies have therefore been made available in all courses after the first year, and many subjects are restricted altogether to
such studies. But a ll individual and small group work is so available only upon such
conditions and for such credit as may be approved by the professor in charge and
the Dean.
Individual studies vary so widely with the problem, the student and the professor,
that rules for their development cannot be adequately formulated. They require the
utmost flexibility. Certain things, however, about this type of work are clear. It goes
beyond the class room and library into the offices, businesses, records, and affairs of
the community at large, both in the formulation of the problems to be studied and in
the mobilization of data pertinent to them. It requires the constant supervision of the
professor in charge, and in many instances results in a product worthy of publication
in some one of the legal periodica ls fostered by the School. The training is designed to
develop on the part of the student the power of analysis, the ability to formulate new
problems, the capacity to bring pertinent sources of information and authority to bear
upon them, originality in both thought and expression, and the ultimate power to
handle the problems of a lawyer in the most acceptable professional manner.

Advanced Standing
A student who enters with advanced standing and who has taken equivalent work
elsewhere is subject to the remaining requirements applicable to the class he enters.

lollrnal and Clinic Work
The opportunities for journal and clinic work afforded by the lega l publication.
and the clinic are of the utmost importance. Inasmuch as three-year students must
carry extremely heavy work to satisfy degree requirements, they are advised to attend
an additional summer session in order to take advantage of the opportunities for
journal and clinic work.

HE SCHOOL OF LA w

was founded in 1859 by

Thomas Hoyne, with Henry Booth as its
first dean. In 1873, as the Union College of Law,
it came under the joint control of Northwestern
University and the old University of Chicago.
When the latter institution ceased to exist, the
School came under the control of Northwestern
University, and in 1891 became Northwestern
University School of Law.
The School is located in two new buildings on
McKinlock Campus, overlooking Lake Michigan
at Lake Shore Drive and Chicago Avenue, within
a few moments walk of Chicago's Loop district.
Levy Mayer Hall is the gift of Mrs . Levy Mayer
in memory of her husband, an eminent member
of the Chicago bar. The Elbert H. Gary Library
Building, which houses the Elbert H. Gary
Library, is the gift of the late Elbert H. Gary,
of the Class of 1867. A beautiful cloistered garden enclosed by an arched wall connecting the
wings of the two buildings, is the gift of Mrs.
Hortense Mayer Hirsch, daughter of Mrs.
Mayer and the late Levy Mayer.

�Scope of Program

T

HE CHARACTER of modern law schools is decisively marked by the mterests they serve and by the programs which reflect those interests.

The development of a law school program to serve the interests of the
great area and population of the Middle West and to provide the training
required for its young lawyers imposes heavy obligations upon a university.
No other great territory focuses so many interests upon a single community;
no other community has so many problems for a law school.
Chicago is the great agricultural market and trade center of the nation;
the great live stock and dairying market; the great food processing center for
meats, breads, and fruits ; the great industrial and manufacturing center; the
great wholesale and retail market of finished goods. Attendant upon these
is the country's most extensive transportation network of rail, inland waterway, highway, and airway facilities. All these in turn require enormous
credit and banking resources, extensive sites, plants, and office buildings for
their officials, tradesmen and clerical staffs. Sustained by such activities is
a massive population which requires all the institutions of communication,
subsistence, convenience, pleasure, art, and learning of modern society; out
of such activities arise all the legal problems incident to industry and trade
known to the law.
Of equal import to a law school are the institutions of government requisite
to such a territory and community. The problems of local government as
police, health, sanitation, public education, amusements, traffic, transportation, and taxation, which beset the hundreds of governmental units in the
vast Chicago metropolitan area; the problems incident to the numerous
governmental agencies of the State of Illinois and the other great s!4tes to
which the business interests of the Chicago region are subject; the problems
created by the far flung agencies and activities of the national government
throughout this great middle country-all problems within the scope of the
professional service of a lawyer-impose responsibilities and give opportunities which a law school must meet on behalf of the profession.
Of even greater importance to a people and profession devoted to the
principles of independence and freedom in all their relations are the men,
women, and children whose interests as individuals lie at the base of society,
and whose protection is frequently overlooked in the more dramatic struggles
of business and government.
An institution for training men capable of doing the work of the law
in such an area must itself have organization. It must have officers and
trustees whose personalities and experience are representative of the interests
it serves; a faculty of such man-power and learning as to provide instruction
and training and promote scholarship in so vast a field of law and government.
It must have buildings and quarters which facilitate the work of the students
who must cover such a field in the short period of three or four years ; a
10

�library which makes available the law and legal literature of every country
whose law may be brought into question by the cosmopolitan population and
aggressive men of business who operate within such vast territory of trade
and commerce. It should have a student body small enough to obviate the
deadening influence of large formal classes, and of such character and scholastic attainments as to generate the intellectual drive required for individual
studies. Its curriculum must cover the problems the profession must meet;
it must be rigid enough to insure the understanding of basic principles, yet
flexible enough to allow the widest choice on behalf of the student who desires
mastery over some small segment of so large a field of professional service.
The School is committed to such policies. It has a large faculty composed
of able teachers, distinguished scholars, and experienced lawyers. Its student
body is selected through operation of the highest standards of admission, and
is the smallest of any of the national schools. It has the most extensive and
flexible curriculum of formal, small group, and individual studies offered by
any school. Due to the generous support of the Illinois and Chicago bars it
is enabled to offer many studies in local law and special subjects which
normally cannot be reflected in a curriculum. Its legal clinics for practical
study and experience were the first to be established and are the most fully
developed of any in the country. The three legal periodicals and the foundations, institutes, and laboratory fostered by the School and its friends promote
the widest research and publication on the part of its undergraduate and
graduate students, faculty, and members of the profession generally. Its
buildings, library, and other facilities are designed to make the School's program adequate to its responsibilities for providing thorough professional
training.

S

Admission

may be admitted in the fall, winter, or summer terms.
An applicant for admission to the School must file an application for
admission, and must furnish proof of having obtained a bachelor's degree in
Arts or Science from an approved college, or of having satisfactorily completed
three years' study in an approved college. A complete transcript of his college
record, together with evidence of any degree he may have received, must be
filed with his application, or as soon thereafter as it can be obtained. If he
has done work in another law school or any other school in addition to his
college work, a complete transcript of such work must also be filed with his
application.
In the discretion of the Dean, applicants not exceeding ten in number for
any one year, who possess the general educational qualifications for admission
to the Illinois bar may be admitted as special st11,dents not candidates for a
degree.
The admission of students from other law schools and the granting of advanced standing for credits obtained in any such school rests within the
discretion of the Dean of the School.
TUDENTS

11

�No applicant will be admitted who has been denied re-admissio11 to another
law school.
All applications must be accompanied by the matriculation fee. This fee
will be returned only if the applicant is not admitted.
Auditors who have already been admitted to the bar and who are not
candidates for a degree may be admitted to certain courses in such numbers
as will not interfere with the work of the students registered for such courses.

Summer T erm. Any applicant in good standing at a member school of
the Association of American Law Schools will be admitted for the summer
term. His application for admission must be accompanied by a certificate of
good standing.

Curriculum
Formal Class Room Studies

T

two years of the curriculum are designed primarily for formal
and intensive class room work, based upon the study and analysis of
cases, supplemented by library reading and investigation. To this end many
courses have been developed in which the materials for study have been realigned. While historical and other materials of value have been retained,
many older and fragmentary courses have been combined, subject matter no
longer vital has been discarded, and fresh materials reflecting current problems and developments have been included. In addition, methods and technics
of teaching have been evolved appropriate to the use of the materials. These
improvements reduce the period of the student's formal study and at the same
time cover the field of law more adequately.
HE FIRST

Individual Studies
The curriculum for the third and fourth years is designed to permit a
highly flexible laboratory program for the individual student. While many
formal courses are available for the third and fourth year students who prefer
them, individual and small group studies requiring independent work on the
part of the student are encouraged. In almost every course after the first year
there are some more mature and industrious students who desire to expand
their work by way of investigation into important subjects collateral to the
main course. Individual studies have therefore been made available in all
courses after the first year, and some subjects are restricted altogether to
such studies. But all individual and small group work is so available only
upon such conditions and for such credit as may be approved by the professor in charge and the Dean.
Individual studies vary so widely with the problem, the student and the
professor, that rules for their development can not be adequately formulated.
They require the utmost flexibility. Certain things, however, about this type
of work are clear. It goes beyond the class room and library into the offices,
12

�businesses, records, and affairs of the community at large, both in the formulation of the problems to be studied and in the mobilization of data pertinent
to them. It requires the constant supervision of the professor in charge, and
in many instances results in a product worthy of publication in some one of the
legal periodicals fostered by the School. The training is designed to develop
on the part of the student the power of analysis, the ability to formulate new
problems, the capacity to bring pertinent sources of information and authority
to bear upon them, originality in both thought and expression, and the ultimate
power to handle the problems of a lawyer in the most acceptable professional
manner.

Required Subjects
Passing grades in the following subjects are required for graduation for
all students receiving the degree of Juris Doctor or Bachelor of Laws:
( 1) All first-year courses.
(2) Profession of the Bar ( 1).
(3) Legal Clinic, Civil Branch (not required for members of the Legal
Publications Board).
Inasmuch as three-year students must carry extremely heavy work to
satisfy degree requirements, they are advised to attend an additional summer
session in order to take advantage of the opportunities afforded by the legal
publications and the clinics, both of which are of the utmost importance.

Limitation of Work
The curriculum for the first year represents what is thought to be the
maximum amount of work which can be done by a good student under favorable conditions. Students who are under any serious handicap such as
physical disability, the necessity of earning part of their expenses, commuting for long distances, or otherwise, should reduce their programs
accordingly.
No first year student may register in any course other than those herein
indicated for first year students except by permission of the Dean. No student after the first year may register for more than fifteen hours per week
except by permission of the Dean. Any student may be further limited in his
registration if in the opinion of the Dean he cannot undertake the work desired with prospects of success.
In the fourth year, not less than ten semester hours of credit must be obtained in each semester.

The Elbert H. Gary Library

HE Elbert H. Gary Library of some 106,000 volumes housed in the Elbert
H. Gary Library Building represents chiefly the gifts of the late Elbert
H. Gary, LL.B., 1867, LL.D., 1922. It ranks among the five largest law
school libraries in the United States and includes substantially all the reported decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and
territories, Great Britain, Canada, and Australia, together with their statutes
and session laws, and all subsidiary publications---&lt;iigests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, text books, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary to form a
complete working collection of Anglo-American law. In addition there is a
very representative collection of volumes upon Continental law, which includes
the codes, decisions, and journals of all modern European countries, adequate
resources for research in Roman and media:val law, and a good working collection of volumes upon Japanese and Chinese law. The Theodore S. Chapman and Robert 0. Farrell collections of Mexican law supplement a useful
group of some five thousand volumes on Latin-American law. A large collection of treatises and periodicals upon international law is supplemented by
many treaties and diplomatic documents and the whole permits useful work
to be carried on in the field of public international law. The Library maintains a very complete collection of volumes and documents upon criminal law.

Pictures
The School's collection of pictures, now numbering some 2,500 pieces,
copiously illustrates the history, personnel, and customs of the legal profession, not only in Great Britain and the United States, but all over the world.
It represents acquisitions accumulated during the past 30 years, partly by
purchase, partly by gift from alumni and other friends. Personal search has
been made in nearly every country of Europe for portraits and scenes to illus29

�trate other systems of law; many of these are unique and irreplaceable. A
recent acquisition in this field is a series of portraits of Swiss jurists, obtained
through Dr. Max Huber, late judge of the World Court.
The collection includes some 40 oil paintings, and about 1,500 etchings and
engravings. A special series is a set of 20 large platinum photographs of
portraits of eminent British judges in the National Gallery of Portraits,
colored by a London artist to show the costumes. The larger portraits are
framed for display on the walls of lecture rooms, Library reading-room, and
corridors.
The cataloguing of the collection is now almost completed, and consists
of basic classification cards, with three cross-indices (alphabetical, accessions,
location). The classification is into five groups: A, Portraits (including
sculpture, caricatures, etc.), B, Places (including courthouses, law schools,
monuments, etc.), C, Scenes (including trial scenes from all periods and
places), D, Documents (including facsimiles), and E, Miscellaneous. In the
study of professional biography, it is now possible to refer here to the likeness of almost any judge or lawyer in our country who has reached distinction.

The James Nelson and
Anna Louise Raymond Foundation
Legal Clinics

I

1926 Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond established the James Nelson and
Anna Louise Raymond Foundation by a gift of $200,000, the income
from which, subject to certain annuities, provides a legal clinic for the poor.
It was organized under the superintendence of a joint committee of the
School of Law, United Charities, and the Chicago Bar Association. Since
its establishment the income from the Foundation, generously supplemented
by further gifts from Mrs. Raymond, the late Julius Rosenwald and several
leading Chicago law firms, has sustained the clinic in three branches, viz.,
the Civil, Industrial, and Criminal. These have been under the direction of
attorneys of the Law School, who have been generously aided by the staff
of the Legal Aid Bureau of the United Charities. In connection with each
clinic, instruction is given for a semester by the professor in charge, and
each student is required to investigate, prepare for trial, and in the event of
trial, take part in the conduct of several cases, under the direction of the
attorney in charge. The work of the Law School and that of the Legal Aid
Bureau are highly coordinated. In the Civil and Industrial branches, the
attorneys of the Law School maintain their offices at the Legal Aid Bureau.
Indigent claimants and defendants in every type of case are represented. The
student comes in intimate contact with the routine and problems of office
practice and litigation generally. The claims successfully prosecuted aggregate thousands of dollars annually, and the legitimate defenses afforded
N

�indigent persons are equally valuable. The Foundation and clinics were the
first to be set up on behalf of a law school.
For details of the clinic work required, see the Curriculum.
In connection with

which is applicable generally for the cultivation of legal literature, and
specifically by means of the publication of meritorious essays, monographs,
and books of a scientific or practical nature concerning the law, which
otherwise might not readily find a publisher; by the aid or encouragement
of research in the field of legal literature, and of the preparation for publication in whole or in part of the results of such research; by the delivery
and publication of lectures on subjects concerning the law; etc.
The following scholars have given lectures at the School under the auspices
of the Foundation:
In 1927, Sir William Searle Holdsworth, Vinerian Professor of Law in
Oxford University.

Northwestern University Press. The notes and comments published
in the several journals are for most part written by law school students.
Selection of the student members of the Board is based upon scholastic
standing and competitive writing. Membership on the Board is the highest
honor a student can attain in the School of Law, and of itself constitutes a
preferred rating for the purpose of obtaining employment after graduation.

The Junior Bar Association each year presents gold keys to the students
who are elected to membership on the Legal Publications Board. It also
gives awards for the three best contributions for publication made by members of the Board.

Limitation of Number of Students

HE TOTAL number
hundred, exclusive
marily by the quality of
may be, and usually are

of students admitted each year
of graduate students. Selection
an applicant's college record, but
considered. A personal interview

is limited to four
is determined primany other factors
may be required.

Pre-Legal Course
Among the many values to be derived from college study, maturity is of
peculiar importance to the study of law. Such maturity comes from rigorous
intellectual discipline derived from the mastery of any study undertaken by a
student, rather than from the mere content of the subject matter.
While students may enter the School of Law with either three or four years
of college preparation, it is the opinion of the faculty that only relatively
mature students should enter before securing an academic degree. But it is
also the opinion of the faculty that a student who is qualified to enter law
school at the end of his third year in college will become a much stronger
lawyer by spending four years rather than three in the law school. The
greater facilities of the law school for doing independent work during the
later years of his course develop the student's power far more than does
the additional year in college.
Students differ in their tastes, and college courses differ in the stimulation
and discipline afforded the student. The School of Law, therefore, does not
prescribe particular college courses for admission nor does it recommend
specific courses. In this it follows the judgment of the Association of American Law Schools. The preparation of each student for law study is left to
the particular individual and the particular college.
In order that students in this University may have some assistance in
selecting studies, the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and the Dean of
the School of Law have appointed a committee to advise pre-legal students
who may desire suggestions with reference to the studies to be pursued by
them. This committee is composed of Professors Carey, DeLong, Grose,
Hohman, and Terry, of the College of Liberal Arts; and Professors Baker,
Fagg, and Havighurst, of the School of Law.
3S

�Examinations
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. They are for the
purpose of affording a basis for the determination of the student's relative
mastery of the subject upon which he is examined. But they provide only
one source, though an important one, for such purpose. In addition, the
written work done in connection with a course, the preparation of assignments for recitation as reflected in class room discussion, the contacts generally with the professor in charge incident to the development of a course,
are all of great value in rating the standing of a student, and in most courses
are reflected in the final grade.
Examinations in individual or small group studies may or may not be given,
dependent upon the character of the subject and the nature of the instruction.
No re-examination will be given in any course for the purpose of raising
a grade obtained therein on a prior examination unless the student again
regularly takes the course, or in the case of individual studies, does further
work as may be required.

Six grades are given :
A-Excellent.
B-Superior.
(-Average.

Grades
S-Satisfactory.
D-Inferior, but passing.
F-Failure.

Grades A, B, C, D, and S may be applied toward requirements for promotion or for a degree, provided that not more than twenty per cent of the
total credits required for a degree shall be satisfied by D grade credits. The
grade S is restricted to courses in which formal examinations are not feasible.

Promotion
Each applicant must have obtained, for promotion :
To the Second Year .. . ........ . . ..... 24 semester-hours
To the Third Year . ... . .. .. ..... . .... 48 semester-hours
To the Fourth Year .. . . . . . ....... . . .. 72 semester-hours

Honors
The faculty at the first meeting of each school year select for inclusion in
the Honor List the names of those students whose standing is such as in the
opinion of the faculty deserves particular mention.
Credits obtained at other schools are reckoned in determining the student's
standing in relation to the Honor List, but to no greater amount than
twenty-four semester-hours.

The Law School Situation
NORTHWESTERN LAW SCHOOL ALUMNI:

THE Law School situation in the Chicago area should be of interest

to every Northwestern Law alumnus. Its analysis will indicate
what the School's hopes may be for maintaining a high place among
the institutions of the country.
In the area from which our students for the most part are drawn,
there are thirteen other university law schools which are accredited
members of the Association of American Law Schools, viz., Michigan, Indiana, Notre Dame, Illinois, Iowa, South Dakota, Wisconsin, University of Chicago, De Paul, Loyola, Marquette, Drake, and
Valparaiso. In addition there are in Illinois three well-established
evening schools: Chicago-Kent, John Marshall, Lincoln College of
Law. Two other such schools have only recently been begun:
Central University Law School, and the Chicago-Union College of
Law. It is reported that Illinois Wesleyan College at Bloomington
is contemplating the reestablishment of its law school.
The 1934-35 attendance of these schools, and the tuition charges

year at 301 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago, Illinois. Entered as second class mail matter November

There are 14 non-accredited schools, for the most part evening
schools in New York City, Boston, and Philadelphia, with 7852
students.
It will be noticed that the eastern private schools not only have
no strong state school competition, but the tuitions of the better
known schools are on practically the same level. Northwestern, inasmuch as it attracts, more so than any other school of this area, the
students who would be inclined to go to the better known eastern
schools, must compete with them on practically the same tuition
basis; for the other students of this area it must compete with the
strong state schools and with the other private schools at tuitions
much less than its own. This does not take into account the year's
additional time and expense required to obtain a degree at Northwestern. All the other schools of this area have six-year combination
courses for a college and law school degree. Northwestern offers
the LL.B. degree on such a basis beginning with the year 1935-36.
Many questions naturally arise. What sort of training are the
young lawyers of this section receiving? Where there are so many
law schools in comparison with the number of law students, how
can any one law school hope to be able to maintain a parity with
the strong eastern schools? Is the West to be overcrowded by
mediocre schools? How are the courts and the profession affected
by the training afforded by such schools? Thus pressed from every
side, how can Northwestern continue to maintain its place among
the best schools of the country? It is this last inquiry which I wish
to consider.

�NORTHWESTERN MUST OFFER SUPERIOR ADVANTAGES

It is quite clear that in order for Northwestern Law School to
continue at its present comparative level, it must offer many advantages which cannot be found in other schools, and generally speaking, its training of young lawyers must be from thirty to fifty per
cent more effective than training obtained at the other schools with
which it is competing.
There are certain definite advantages which the School has over
its competitors. These may be stated briefly as follows:
( 1) Financially it spends more on each student than any other
school in this area, and doubtless more than any other American
law school except one. A student's tuition of $400 pays less than
forty per cent of the expenses which may be fairly allocated to him.
The School's annual budget is the largest in this area.
( 2) Its facilities (buildings, class rooms, study rooms, library,
etc.) and its location in a great commercial and population center,
offer more by way of student convenience and satisfactions. These
facilities are lacking only in student housing.
( 3) The full-time faculty, not to mention its practitioner members, is the largest of any school in the area. It is one of the largest
in the country, and in comparison with its student body is the largest.
But of more significance, its staff represents one of the most effectively organized and highly qualified groups of lawyers, teachers,
and scholars found in any institution.
( 4) The student body is restricted and carefully selected on the
basis of academic scholarship, character, maturity, etc., and it is believed that each student has more contacts with his instructors than
is the case in any other American law school.
( 5) Its curriculum is very advanced and thoroughly coordinated
for the purpose of developing the powers of a student and extending
his range of knowledge to meet the present-day demands made upon
a lawyer. The faculty claim for it the high water mark in law
school curriculum development.
( 6) The School has always been a pioneer in developing techniques of teaching, both in formal class, individual, and small group
studies. Along with these has gone the development of teaching
materials.
(7) More emphasis is placed upon preparation of written ma4

I

f

�terials for class, as well as publication, than probably in any other
law school. This is indicated somewhat by the fact that its faculty
and small student group publish three highly reputable journals of
eighteen full issues annually.
(8) Its scholarly and scientific undertakings as represented by the
Julius Rosenthal Foundation, the Linthicum Foundation, the Air
Law Institute, the Scientific Crime Detection Laboratory, and the
fostering of the American Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology and, until recently, the American Judicature Society, mark distinct advances in law school, as well as general professional development.
( 9) Its clinics, made possible by Mrs. James Nelson Raymond,
and the Illinois Law Lectures, so generously sustained by members
of the Illinois and Chicago bars, have set the pattern for similar
undertakings at many other schools.
SCHOOL OPERATES UNDER HANDICAPS

In the first place, the matter of bar examinations, though not a
serious handicap, is serious enough to deserve mention. Bar examinations for the most part have not tested the powers of the welltrained student; they have always lagged far oehind good law school
training. The greater the advance in legal training, the greater
the bar examination handicap. This has been the case everywhere.
Because examinations are set on a basis more fitted for cram courses
than for well-trained students, our School has suffered for many
years. Incidentally, the Bar Examiner's statistics have not always
been accurate, due in part to the fact that we have received no credit
for our four-year men who took the examinations prior to receiving
their degrees. I am glad to report that the Illinois Board of Law
Examiners is making great efforts to improve its methods of examination, and if its efforts are approved by the Supreme Court, the
handicaps for our students will be somewhat removed. They will
never be altogether removed until the examinations are designed to
test the power of a person to practice law. But despite bar examination records, our graduates are preferred for positions by the Chicago
offices. Their performances as lawyers bespeak their training.
Three other great handicaps of the School are ( 1) lack of student
housing, ( 2) lack of sufficient scholarship and loan funds, and ( 3)

offices. Their performances as lawyers bespeak their training.
Three other great handicaps of the School are ( 1) lack of student
housing, (2) lack of sufficient scholarship and loan funds, and (3)
5

�a declining enrollment. These are closely related. The School is
located in a community where living expenses are comparatively
high. Adequate housing facilities would reduce the cost of living
considerably, would add greatly to the scholarship of the individual
student, and enhance the values of his school life tremendously.
Moreover, they would aid greatly in attracting the 140 or 150 additional students which the School is prepared to care for, and which
are in fact needed in order to fully man the enterprises which have
been developed for student training. The School must have a considerable increase in its number of students in order to reduce the
gradually growing deficit, which has now reached some $60,000 to
$70,000 per year. Most of this increase must come from outside
the immediate Chicago area, and it is thus that housing facilities are
of such importance to the School. Judged by the number of applications, our standing with the colleges of this whole middle country is extremely good. These applicants represent the best talent
of their respective colleges. Most of them, however, must have
financial aid in order to enter or remain in the School. The only
way to meet these problems, in the absence of a dormitory, seems to
be through scholarship and loan funds by which the expense of students coming from a distance may be somewhat reduced. Most of
the eastern schools have very large funds for this purpose, and the
competition they afford for the best students even in our own area
is extremely severe.
As good a start as this School may have toward becoming well
established financially, it still may be overwhelmed by the competition which is growing more intense with every year. The fact that
it is leading the way in legal education in this part of the country
does not mean that its lead cannot be taken away from it. It must
have a sufficient number of students of high quality to carry on its
educational program, and its position should be made incontestable
by making pi:ovision for student housing and student financial aids.
Compared with the cost and time required to erect a building such
as Levy Mayer Hall, to provide a library such as the Elbert H. Gary
Library, to d~velop a strong faculty, and an adequate training program, or to build up an excellent standing in the community, all of
which the School has, these remaining needs present relatively minor
problems. Nevertheless, they must be solved.
6

�It is my belief that the resourcefulness of the School's strong
alumni group can find some answer to these problems. Many of you
successfully handle more difficult problems every year. The building
of a dormitory on ground which is already paid for, for students
who would immediately fill it to capacity, ougl}t not to be an insurmountable financial problem. The low rate of interest, the need for
work, and the relatively low costs of materials, are all favorable
factors at this time. As a self-liquidating project, a dormitory
should prove a good investment.
Moreover, the development of a fund of $10,000 to $15,000 per
year for scholarships and loans, begun by Mrs. James Nelson Raymond, Mrs. Jacob Newman, and Mrs. Anna Coburn, ought to be
within the power of the alumni within this area. All Chicago should
be interested in the School's success, and no other group can ask
more of Chicago than can you.
ALUMNI INTEREST GREATEST NEED

Probably the greatest .handicap which the School is under, and one
which you realize even more than those of us immediately related
with the School, is the lack of organization through which you as
alumni can effectively claim a part in the School's development.
The Foundation Fund is, of course, a splendid and necessary channel for your financial contributions from year to year. It is a happy
solution of that phase of your support. But your desire to have a
part in the growth of the institutional life of the School, and your
willingness to assist it in all possible ways, are in many respects even
more valuable to the School than your financial contributions.
The School still lacks access to its most abundant resources-its
alumni. It is not difficult to understand why this is true. The
change of name from the Union College of Law weakened many
ties on the part of many of the School's strongest men. The removal
to a new location made many of you strangers to the School's physical facilities and surroundings. Most of the men you knew so well,
the ablest teachers and scholars of their time, are gone-men like
Hoyne, Booth, Hurd, Schofield, Hyde, Harriman, Mack, Woodward,
Kales, Keedy, Greeley, Costigan, Pound, Bruce, and others; and you
have not yet come to know the distinguished faculty which has taken
their places. The chief of staff, Dean Wigmore, with whose re7

�markable personality the School was identified for so long a time,
is not in charge any longer. The entire processes of legal education
have been made over since most of you were in school. Everything
possible has happened to make you a stranger to your own institution, and thereby to weaken your affection for it. Such are the penalties that both School and graduates must suffer for its struggling
years of growth and for its rapid educational progress.
Nothwithstanding, so vigorous has been the School's early growth,
and so intelligent has been the development of fts policies, that it is
still the greatest institution of its kind in this area, and one of the
great schools of the country. And I am sure that with your support
in all the numerous ways it can be brought to bear, the School
can be maintained at a level extremely gratifying to you and to the
people of this community. But the regaining or, at least reenlivening of your affections is by all odds the most important phase of
the School's life at this time. A lack of faith and interest on your
part is the one handicap the School can not successfully overcome.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?

Shall we make the additional efforts required to give the School
